I found Grant to be a coach that hears what I am saying, and unearths the real root cause of the things holding me back. He knew exactly what was needed.

With 35 years in the meat industry -spanning operations, feedlotting, processing, and board-level leadership - he brings real-world credibility to every conversation in his Life Performance Coaching.
Through Authentic Minds, Grant works with established and emerging leaders, men, women, executives, operational staff and all people who want to change how they show up in life. He helps people challenge old thinking, break limiting patterns, and build clarity so they can lead with confidence at work and live with purpose at home.
At the heart of his work is a simple belief: when you think differently, you live differently.
He gets joy from helping good operators and good people become grounded, self-aware, and clear on who they are and how they want to show up across every area of life.

Grant has done some great work on getting to the route of my subconscious issues and made an excellent start at teaching me how to better deal with them. It has forced me to to sit back and think about how to act as a family man and friend.
My wife and son are already enjoying the benefits of my better mental wellbeing since I have been doing the coaching with Grant. Highly recommend to anyone who is prepared to put in the work!

I really enjoyed working with Grant He was through and thoughtful with my concerns, he helped me see a different perspective and how to approach the situation, this gave me clarity on moving forward. I feel like I am back in the drivers seat of my life. I would highly recommend Grant as a coach if you want to see through the BS, and gain clarity in your direction and goals. Thank you Grant for a wonderful session.

Looking in the mirror and evaluating yourself is one of the hardest things in life to do. Through the 3-weeks program I gained a clear pathway to re-evaluate myself in a positive way, create alignment and look at how I can change my own narrative.
In hindsight, Im proud to have had the courage to be curious with myself and make the leap for self improvement before I got in the road of my own life and happiness.
