Manifesto / 001

The toughest people need recovery too.

Bullies isn't a wellness brand. It's structural maintenance for the ones who lived hard — fighters, blue-collar workers, athletes with mileage. We're rebuilding what masculinity looks like after the chaos: discipline, breathwork, sleep, repair. Toughness, evolved.

Chapter 01 — The Debt

Eight years
at the center
of the impact.

Riley Cote spent his NHL career as one of the league's most feared enforcers — heir to the Broad Street Bullies legacy. The trade-off wasn't just physical. It was a compounding debt of trauma, inflammation, and identity.

Bullies was forged in the search for what comes next. Breathwork. Cannabis education. The discipline of healing. This isn't softness — it's the same grit, pointed inward.

"Eventually, every warrior has to learn recovery."
