The Pre Order Bonus Package

✅ Hard Lessons Companion Guide

While Hard Lessons From The Hurt Business takes you deep inside my personal journey—showing you how I turned poverty, trauma, addiction, and the brutality of boxing into hard-earned wisdom—the Companion Guide gives you something the book doesn’t: a clear, actionable framework for applying these lessons to your own life.

This guide distills the most powerful principles from Hard Lessons and organizes them into focused exercises, reflection prompts, and practical strategies you can start using immediately. Where the book tells the story, the Companion Guide helps you live the story—building your own discipline, grit, and resilience one hard lesson at a time.

✅ Hard Lessons: Practical Applications

The Hard Lessons: Practical Applications isn’t just inspiration—it’s transformation through action. This challenge takes the core concepts from the book and guides you through a daily program designed to sharpen your mental toughness, emotional control, and street-level instincts.

Each lesson delivers a powerful micro-lesson rooted in Stoic philosophy, practical psychology, and hard-won street smarts. You won’t just read about resilience—you’ll practice it.

With assignments focused on critical thinking, risk management, communication, and strategic empathy, this challenge forces you to put the principles of the book into motion in your daily life. The result? A grittier, wiser, more capable version of yourself—one that can handle adversity like a fighter.

✅ 1-Hour Live Q&A Session

This is your chance to go beyond the page and connect with me directly. In this exclusive live Q&A, I’ll break down the most powerful hard lessons from the book, share untold stories from the hurt business that didn’t make it into print, and give you deeper insight into how I built resilience, discipline, and hope.

You’ll also get the chance to ask your questions—about mindset, adversity, addiction recovery, boxing, or whatever challenge you’re facing—and get real answers. No fluff. No pre-scripted talking points. Just me, you, and an honest conversation about what it takes to fight and win at life.

💥 Together, these bonuses turn your pre-order into a complete system for building grit, discipline, and street-level wisdom—tools you’ll use long after you finish the last page of the book.

What Early Readers Are Saying...

"There is no other writer quite like Ed Latimore. The best part about this book, though, is that it really feels like he’s just speaking with you the way he would over beers at a bar—and Latimore has plenty of experience with this, as you’ll come to learn. This book is a knockout."

Rob Henderson, best-selling author of “Troubled: A Memoir of Foster Care, Family, and Social Class”

"Ed Latimore's jaw-dropping journey as a boxer is a masterclass in how self-discipline, self-reflection, and never losing sight of the fundamentals are a cheat code for personal resilience. The way he uses all his experiences, both positive and negative, as a way to learn who he truly is and what's important to him are incredibly inspiring for anyone seeking to live a better life."

Tiago Forte, bestselling author of Building a Second Brain: A Proven Method to Organize Your Digital Life and Unlock Your Creative Potential

“Ed Latimore's Hard Lessons From the Hurt Business is an extraordinary chronicle of resilience and reinvention. Ed takes the reader on his journey from poverty, trauma, and addiction to the halls of academia and intellectual triumphs. Along the way, he takes us into the boxing ring as he tells his story of transformation and unyielding determination. Hard Lessons is a must-read, particularly during our age of uncertainty. Ed is a source of inspiration for us all.”

Dr. Drew Pinsky, author of The Mirror Effect

“Ed Latimore is living proof that doing hard things will make your life better. This book is not only helpful for leaders to become better, but also extremely informative, and wildly entertaining. But, be warned... It will make you question yourself and rethink how you approach each day. It will make you better... If you let. I love it and think you will too.”

Ryan Hawk, host of The Learning Leader podcast, author of Welcome to Management, The Pursuit of Excellence, The Score That Matters

“Ed Latimore is a unique thinker and wildly gifted storyteller who writes as hard as he hits. Drawing from the grit of the ring and the scars of real life, Hard Lessons from the Hurt Business is as raw as it is relentlessly brilliant, a one-two combo of personal transformation and powerful philosophy. Read it.”

Jon Finkel, Books & Biceps Founder and Author: Macho Man, “Mean” Joe Greene, The Athlete & more.
