Welcome to the Vulnerable Warrior Project - Redefining Strength one story at a time
The Vulnerable Warrior is my personal project and journey, and I invite everyone—regardless of gender, background, or life experience—to use this movement as a way to reconnect with their inner strength or support someone they care about who may have lost their way.
This movement is dedicated to redefining what it means to be truly strong. I’m Thommo, a former Australian Army officer, a person navigating the challenges of traumatic brain injury, post traumatic stress disorder, generalised anxiety disorder and most likely chronic traumatic encephalopathy (clearly undiagnosed). I’m a father to four incredible children, and a proud partner of a fierce and inspiring lady. My path has been one of ongoing growth, self-discovery, and learning that real resilience isn’t about suppression or stoicism — it’s about embracing vulnerability, fostering connection, and living authentically.
My mission is to inspire everyone to stand tall in their truth, to recognize that genuine strength comes from embracing your emotions, and that true resilience is rooted in honesty and connection. Whether you’re facing your own struggles, seeking community, or simply looking for a space to be heard, you are not alone.
Join me in breaking down barriers, redefining what it means to be strong, and demonstrating that vulnerability is a powerful tool for growth and healing. Together, we can forge a new path—one built on courage, compassion, and authentic strength.

About The Vulnerable Warrior Project
At The Vulnerable Warrior Project, we believe that true strength isn’t about hiding your pain or pretending to be invulnerable. It’s about owning your story, embracing vulnerability, and rewriting the narrative of what it means to be a man in today’s world.
This is more than a brand — it’s a movement. A call for men everywhere to stand tall, not in spite of their feelings, but because of them. We challenge the stereotypes that tell us vulnerability is weakness, and instead celebrate it as the ultimate act of courage.
Our mission is to inspire men to speak their truths, share their struggles, and connect with others who understand that real warriors are those who have the courage to be authentic. Through storytelling, community, and honest conversations, we’re redefining masculinity — one brave, vulnerable step at a time.
And we believe in supporting and celebrating the men in our lives—husbands, fathers, brothers, partners—because their strength and vulnerability inspire us all. We invite women who want to shout out about the men they love, support, and admire to join this movement, too — because real strength is a family affair.
Join us. Be bold. Be authentic. Be a Vulnerable Warrior.
