So much of life’s drift comes from being overwhelmed by noise. Chris Robinson, author of From Drift to Drive, will reveal why gathering insights and filtering distractions are essential skills for overcoming complacency and moving forward with confidence.

Roddy Galbraith
Your future is shaped by the people you surround yourself with. In this powerful teaching, Roddy Galbraith unpacks why being in the right rooms—and building the right relationships—is often the breakthrough step to driving your life forward.

Jim Edwards
Nothing changes until you take action. Jim Edwards will share how to identify the right next step, overcome hesitation, and put movement behind your vision—because action creates traction.

Mark Cole
Growth isn’t automatic—it requires regular reflection. Mark Cole will explain how the discipline of evaluating your progress and asking the right questions keeps you on course and prevents you from slipping back into drift.
“Drift isn’t laziness. It’s motion without meaning. It’s when your calendar is full, but your heart’s not in it.”
