At Philosopher Kings, we help you become a high-competency, low-ego young professional—someone uniquely better.
Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle didn’t just teach a subject—they mentored learners to cultivate internal authority and pursue virtue. We follow that same tradition.
Our approach is simple, practical, and affordable—designed to fit real life.
The best way to grow with Philosopher Kings is by joining the PHILOSOPHER KINGS SKOOL COMMUNITY.
The PK Community is an ANTI-COACHING system which Mark came up with over and against the “pay someone on the internet thousands of dollars to teach you something” model.
You’re welcome.
Our goal is that EVERY YOUNG PROFESSIONAL or EARLY CAREER PERSON can afford and find belonging and purpose with our community.
We consistently challenge our viewers, listeners, and subscribers to give up a couple of drinks with friends or a few lattes a month to invest in their own internal authority. And that’s it. For just 15$ a month, you can have what is in our opinion THE BEST YOUNG PROFESSIONAL and EARLY CAREER COACHING in the marketplace.
It is affordable specifically FOR YOU as a YOUNG PRO, we only ask that you do the work, show up, contribute, and journey with us as we continue to build something beautiful.
Each edition of our world-class, PK Memo comes with a single, half-hour to forty-five minute deep training on how to thrive in one of six key areas:
EMOTIONAL HEALTH AND GROWTH MINDSET.
RELATIONAL INTELLIGENCE AND STRATEGIES.
INTERNAL AUTHORITY AND RESILIENCE.
CORE PROFESSIONAL COMPETENCIES.
WORK AND HOME LIFE BALANCE.
LONG-TERM FINANCIAL FREEDOM.
On top of that, we have stand alone and series trainings on resilience, emotional health, relational intelligence and intergenerational soft-skills, to help you love your life and love your co-workers well (even the boomers).
The reason we built the training platform this way, is that any young adult can afford world class professional and personal training, so long as they will commit to a couple hours of sincere reflection each month.
We want every young professional to feel challenged, supported, and like they truly belong.
We’ve got a few great ways to get started.

So let’s go.
HERE ARE SOME OF THE COACHING TOOLS AVAILABLE IN THE PHILOSOPHER KINGS COMMUNITY.

For less than the cost of 2 or 3 drinks a month, you can start investing in something that actually compounds—your inner world. At just 15$ a month, the PHILOSOPHER KINGS SKOOL COMMUNITY centers around a digital magazine edition called the PK Memo. The PK Memo delivers 3 to 4 short, high-impact articles (and fun bonus spreads) designed to help you level up your internal authority, sharpen your thinking, and lead with clarity—no matter your title.
This isn’t fluff. It’s real mental training built for modern professionals who want more out of life than burnout and busywork. Each Memo includes hyperlinks to a deeper, guided training—accessible, powerful tools meant to transform how you show up in the world. Think of it as a pocket-sized masterclass for becoming the kind of person others trust, follow, and remember.
Skip the drinks. Stack wisdom. You’re not just buying content—you’re building a mindset. One month at a time.
