Throughout his multifaceted career, Colin showed a remarkable ability to embrace change and maintain a focus on his goals. As a freelance consultant and digital delivery project manager, he thrived in navigating complex transformations for organisations, often confronting unpredictable circumstances with composure and clarity. Rather than being overwhelmed by external chaos, Colin channelled his energy into solutions, embodying the Stoic ideal of controlling one’s mind to overcome adversity. Colin focused on embracing change, a stoic journey to resilience and growth.
This philosophy became even more clearly in his personal life. Upon retiring in 2022, Colin redirected his energies toward pursuits that aligned with his values—creativity, community, and personal growth. By immersing himself in mindfulness, manifestation coaching, and breathwork, he not only enriched his own life but also empowered others to embrace their potential. His book, Torri Enso: A Journey of Enlightenment, stands as a testament to his belief in the transformative power of self-awareness and inner strength.
Colin’s resilience was profoundly tested in October 2024 when he experienced the devastating loss of his beloved wife of 40 years. Rather than succumbing to despair, he drew on the Stoic principle of focusing on what lies within one’s control—honouring her memory and cherishing their shared love. By nurturing his creativity through art and writing, he found a means to process grief, heal, and inspire others facing similar challenges. Colin now focused on embracing change a stoic journey to resilience and growth.
Through his journey, Colin has exemplified the transformative power of mindset. By choosing to focus on inner growth rather than external circumstances, he continues to build a life of purpose, reflection, and inspiration. His resilience not only honours the Stoic rule but also serves as a beacon for those seeking strength in their own lives.
NOTE: Working within our sphere of control, we are naturally free, and strong. Beyond that sphere, we are limited, and dependent. If you pin your hopes on things outside your control, taking upon yourself things which rightfully belong to others, you are liable to stumble, fall, suffer, and blame both gods and men. Why not start embracing change a stoic journey to resilience and growth.
