Resilience is a quality characteristic in people, defined as the ability to quickly recover from a disturbance or setback or trauma. Simply put...it is our ability to get up and continue with passion, focus and energy after being knocked down. Resilience is truly one of the greatest character traits we can develop. After attending Andy‘s seminar on Radical Resilience , I was inspired to bring 20 of our top employees and managers together for a remarkable training w Dr Andy Garrett. Our team has had a significant transformation. It has shaped the way we make decisions. I would highly encourage any organization to invest in their team members to become radically resilient in the coming year!

Dr Andy Garrett is absolutely passionate about helping the people and organizations he works with - to actualize their fullest potential.
His uniquely effective approach can be adapted to different organizations - at different stages of their organizational growth - thereby providing the organizations he works with - with the necessary tools and processes to achieve consistent breakthroughs.
I have seen the positive results in my employees that have worked with him, and I recommend him to anyone seeking effective solutions for growth - and for anyone - or any organization that wants to experience significant breakthroughs with the results they are getting.
I strongly recommend that you take the time to see if Dr. Andy’s program is a great fit for you - and/or your team - so that you can see for yourself what happens when you have a team full of employees who are operating with True North Radical Resilience!
In fact, I believe in Dr. Andy so much - that I am creating an entire series of videos with him to discuss how we, as employees, managers and executives can become better leaders and foster better working environments for ourselves and for our employees.

The portfolio of businesses he has worked with include some of the most successful and influential brands in America - including- but not limited to - Snapchat; Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles; LoanDepot; Rippling; etc.)
As a board-certified Organizational Psychologist and Leadership Performance Coach, my standard for recommending a corporate leadership development program is extremely high.
But - with Dr. Andy being one of my closest friends - and my personal accountability partner—in life and work –for over a decade - I believe I have some unique insight into how his approach works - the quality of thought and research he has committed to developing his program - and I have also witnessed how he has personally used the principles and exercises in his program - to overcome some significant challenges - and to achieve some remarkable milestones and accomplishments in his work, with his family, and within his community.
Over the past couple of years - I have had a great number of in depth conversations with Andy regarding his unique framework for maximizing organizational growth - and through these discussions I have developed a deep understanding of his model and approach—and can personally attest to the scientific rigor and profound impact of Dr. Andy’s coaching program.
I feel very confident in asserting that no one has done more research to discover how the results we get—in life or work—are a direct byproduct of truly knowing our identity and purpose, and then living Radically Resilient to our True North foundation.
I have also personally and professionally implemented some of the framework that Andy teaches in his True North Radical Resilience program - and doing this work has been vital in helping me - and my team - to take bigger risks to get the results we want - and to have the ability to consistently bounce back from setbacks and challenges - by growing through them - and creating a culture that thrives through adversity.
More importantly, I can testify that Andy practices what he teaches. He is a person of deep integrity and devotion to his family, his faith, and his own growth journey. His character and expertise in coaching individuals and teams to discover their True North Radically Resilient potential - so they can then turn that knowledge into a simple and practical blueprint for their life, work, and relationships- can absolutely be trusted.
I believe this very likely could be the best and most important investment that you ever make for you and your organization to actualize your fullest potential.

Darrin Gray
CMO of Athletes in Action; Best Selling Author of the book - The Jersey Effect; With 30+ years of Sports Marketing, Media, and Ministry.
Darrin is recognized as a thought leader and speaker on Strategic Philanthropy, Fatherhood, Mentoring, and Leadership.
As a driven entrepreneur, I spent several years in personal conflict with my identity and in finding balance with my work and personal life. My identity and value was deeply tied into the recognition of my professional work and I struggled to be present in my personal life. Beyond success, I found myself searching for significance, peace, and harmony in all areas of my life, not just in my work.
With the True North Radical Resilience program - Dr. Andy has created a simple and highly effective framework that stands out in the category of leadership and team development, as it helps leaders and their teams to establish self-awareness on 3 critical areas that are absolutely transformational. He also provides a new way of approaching this development with customized strategies for how to apply self-awareness tools that are uniquely tailored to the leader - and/or the organization - he is working with - thereby empowering his clients to get maximum results out of their work with him.
Dr Andy’s valuable program provides a strategic roadmap and implementation for achieving greater performance results - and doing so in a way that is repeatable and highly effective. Taking the time to go through this protocol will save leaders significant time (and money) so they can start directing their resources to a process that they can actually trust to work - where their business - and their team - will grow and fulfill their potential.

Derek has been married for over 15 years and has two children. He stays active in his community, church, and children's sports programs.
Dr. Andy Garrett and his True North Radical Resilience program made a significant impact on my life - and for my business - during a time when I was facing a series of challenges that I wasn’t sure we would be able to overcome.
With Dr. Andy’s deep understanding of how your identity is developed (individually and organizationally) and how it can be transformed, and his ability to communicate his knowledge in practical terms, I was able to transform some core beliefs around myself - and my business - that had been limiting my capacity for growth.
In one of my coaching sessions with Dr, Andy he walked me through a Radical Resilience exercise that enabled me to recognize that my past did not need to define me and that I could take ownership over my identity and life by turning these painful beliefs and experiences into fuel for growth and purpose.
I also greatly appreciated the goal oriented approach of the program as it helped me - and my team to stay focused and motivated. And whenever I needed any additional support or guidance, Dr. Andy was available to provide me with the exact encouragement, resources, and accountability I needed to push forward so that I could experience the breakthroughs that I had long been hoping for.
If you make the decision to go through the True North Radical Resilience program, I am confident that you will quickly realize that there is something different about the way Dr. Andy’s program works. I know from first hand experience as I had worked with several executive coaches before him, had attended seminars and live events with some of the so-called guru’s, and I had purchased multiple leadership and team development courses, but none of the work or change ever stuck until meeting Dr. Andy. He is an incredibly special practitioner and someone who is committed to going the extra mile to help you - and your organization to grow and thrive.
I truly could not say enough great things about him or my experience working with him. And Dr. Andy continues to be the one coaching resource that I most trust. I have experienced tremendous progress and growth as a result of my work with him and I honestly believe that his framework should be taught and practiced by any individual, group, or organization that desires to get their best possible results but also cares about being happy, healthy, engaged, and fulfilled.
Now, as the CEO for a growing fitness company, I look back on this time as crucial in my personal and professional development and the person that I am striving to be each day.”

Having been in senior management and C-Level roles throughout the course of my career, I have found that there are many good resources and programs available for both professional and personal development, and yet there is only one that I will unequivocally recommend - the Radical Resilience program developed and delivered by Dr. Andy Garrett. Dr. Garrett's program is by far one of the most comprehensive and effective programs in which I have ever participated. This is the type of program that I as a professional would have benefited from earlier in my career as the tools learned could have helped me process situations in a much more methodical and clearer manner leading to more efficiency and better decisions. No matter the stage of when a company engages in this program, professional teams will benefit. On a personal level, it helped me, not just get through a tough situation, but grow through it. What I learned during this program is now an integral part of my approach to life!

I'm Bob Goodwin, the Founder and President of Career Club, a company dedicated to providing career coaching services - as well as outplacement services to organizations undergoing staff reductions. In addition to my work with Career Club, I host two influential podcasts, catering to senior Human Resources executives, featuring C-level guests from esteemed organizations like McKinsey, Harvard, and P&G. With extensive experience in collaborating with major organizations, especially during critical transitions, I've learned that in the ever-changing tides of today's business world, the winners will be those who equip their teams with the tools and resilience needed to navigate the inevitable turbulence.
As such - the True North Radical Resilience program, pioneered by Dr. Andy Garrett, couldn't come at a more opportune time. It serves as a beacon of hope and stability amidst the turbulent seas of change. This program equips employees with the tools and strategies to navigate these uncertainties with grace and resilience. It lays the foundation for a strong emotional and psychological core within a company's workforce, ensuring that individuals not only survive but thrive in the face of adversity.
Incorporating Dr. Garrett's program into your organization's training portfolio is not just an investment; it's a strategic imperative.
Companies that fail to acknowledge and address the pressing need to bolster their employees' mental well-being do so at their own peril. The consequences are far-reaching, extending well beyond the immediate horizon. Reduced productivity, increased absenteeism, a lack of engagement, and a surge in attrition rates are just the initial costs.
However, for companies that genuinely recognize their associates as their most valuable asset, the decision to invest in their capacity not merely to weather volatility but to thrive within it becomes the key to future success. In the ever-changing tides of today's business world, the winners will be those who equip their teams with the tools and resilience needed to navigate the inevitable turbulence.
While competitors may flounder in their attempts to keep their heads above water, those employers who choose the Radical Resilience program offered by Dr. Andy Garrett will rise above the challenges. They will cultivate a workforce that remains strong in the face of challenges, poised to seize opportunities amid uncertainty, and unwavering in their commitment to the company's mission.
In essence, Radical Resilience isn't just a training program; it's a strategic advantage. It's an investment in the longevity and vitality of your organization. It's a commitment to building a team that can navigate any storm and emerge stronger on the other side. For businesses that understand the true value of their people, the choice is clear - invest in Radical Resilience and position your company to triumph in the face of inevitable turbulence.

I’ve had the privilege to work with Dr. Andy Garrett - with his True North Radical Resilience Blueprint that we utilized at Mariners Church. I give him my highest endorsement and I can genuinely recommend his program to any leader or organization - at any stage of business development. The content covers everything that is needed to live a life that is truly fulfilling, inspired and glorifies God.
I’ve gone through the program and it has created a super strong foundation for me and a clear purpose based on who God wants me to be. It has already helped me avoid conflicts in my mind because of the clarity of who I am. I continue to reflect back on my values and motivations daily, so as decisions come up - it becomes extremely clear what direction I need to take based on my clear understanding of why God put me on this earth.
Furthermore - self-awareness leads to others-awareness - which has allowed me to be more comfortable with who I am so that I can fully empathize with others in my family, work and church. I recommend the True North Radical Resilience program for anyone - or any organization - that desires to level up and see what they might be capable of when they get radically resilient to their True North values, purpose, goals, roles, vision, etc. This program would be especially beneficial and impactful for an entire organization to go through - as it would help ensure that everybody in the organization is growing in the same True North direction - with resilient leadership and practices in place to keep everyone motivated, engaged, and strategically equipped to rise above whatever inevitable challenges the organization faces.

Hello, I’m Dr. Linda Lifur-Bennett, a licensed clinical and educational psychologist with over 40 years of experience as a private practice mental health provider, university lecturer, parenting coach and psychological expert to multiple school districts, churches and the Orange County family court system.
I feel fortunate to have known Dr. Andy Garrett since he was a child. I have watched him grow and develop, both personally and professionally, into a man of high character through his own courageous approach to being the best man he could become.
As a result, I couldn’t be more proud to have him as a colleague, but moreover, as the creator of the True North Radical Resilience Blueprint, an exciting and great new addition to our field. Dr. Andy’s program offers a unique approach to helping people hone in on where their central values came from and then provides a powerful framework for confirming, modifying, or changing anything in their core character that is not in alignment with whom they really want to be and the legacy they want to leave at the end of their life.
And in my experience referring clients to Dr. Andy’s program - he and his program always deliver! Indeed, this program serves as both the discovery tool and then as the navigational tool to help people tap into the full power and potential of their authentic identity and purpose - and do so in a thorough, supportive, and growth-oriented manner.
