Self-inquiry, not self-help
Most programs tell you what to do. This one teaches you to understand why you do what you do — so any change you make actually sticks.
Structure without prescription
Nine modules, video lessons, reflection worksheets, and optional 1:1 check-ins. A framework that holds the work without doing it for you.
Mapped from real experience
I didn't read my way to this. I ran from it, crashed, and rebuilt — slowly. This program traces the terrain I actually walked.
About the program
Tend Your Fire started as a question: why do capable people keep repeating patterns they understand intellectually but can't seem to change? The answer has less to do with strategy and more to do with knowing yourself at a level most people never reach. This program is my attempt to build a road into that territory — not as a guru with a system, but as someone who made the walk and wants to show you the path.
Marco Dal Porto
I spent a decade in construction and real estate, managing hundreds of millions in projects. Externally successful. Internally disconnected. That gap led me into nervous system work, psychology, meditation, and yoga — not as hobbies, but as survival, then as practice. I built this program from that journey. Not to tell you what I figured out, but to walk alongside you through what you might find.
