As a result of my "Team Trust Challenge," individuals become comfortable being uncomfortable, growth through vulnerability, value in self love and selflessness, greater respect for those around them and the space they are in, enjoying their journey, breaking through barriers and creating the greatness in their lives they're looking for.

Nature was my first love. I grew up in the countryside and spent most of my childhood at the beach or on the lake. Being from the South my grandmother was a huge influence on me through her cooking and gardening (albeit with a lot of chemicals). After studying abroad in Europe, I fostered a new relationship to food and nature. Everything was fresh from the market or backyard, without pesticides and eventually composted. This experience influenced me to work in European Affairs protecting citizens from toxic chemicals, which are making us sick Stateside. When I discovered that most chemicals in the US were not regulated, I knew I must move back and use my skillset to coach clients, first physically and later providing them with the knowledge to protect themselves and their families. What really inspired me to go further in my work was the moment my Father was diagnosed with ALS, a disease directly linked to identifiable neurotoxins. My Dad became the catalyst for speaking up about the necessity for reducing these toxins in your household, personal care products, food and water you are consuming. As a mother and mindful citizen, there is a need to help the community pass on safe practices to our future. My goal is to influence others to lead a healthier and above all mindful lifestyle.

Guillermo Vidal is a native of Camagüey, Cuba. In late 1961, his parents sent him with his brothers to the U.S.A. via “Operation Peter Pan,” a program that placed over 14,000 children in foster homes and orphanages throughout the fifty states. The three Vidal boys were assigned to an orphanage in Pueblo, Colorado. They reunited with their parents almost four years later. Guillermo learned about resilience and perseverance as he and his family struggled to overcome many difficult life challenges. Life took a better turn when he graduated as a Civil Engineer from the University of Colorado, Denver in 1973. In 1976, Guillermo began working for the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT)—the last five years serving as executive director and a member of Colorado Governor Roy Romer’s cabinet—where he learned two very important skills. During the earliest part of his career, he learned how to work with others to build bridges, roads and systems that would give people freedom of movement and communities a better chance to grow. The second part of his career with CDOT saw him climb steadily up to the top of the organization’s management structure. This was the time he learned how to inspire and motivate people to come together on a common mission of transportation to help create a greater Colorado. After his tenure with CDOT, he headed the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG)—the Metropolitan Transportation Planning Organization for the Denver region—as its executive director for five years. Once again, Guillermo used his leadership position to help bring communities together on a common vison of regional transportation. In 2004, Guillermo joined Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper to become Deputy Mayor and Manager of Public Works. In 2011, he was sworn in as Denver’s 44th and first foreign-born mayor. He used his skills to bring citizens, local officials and employees together to create a greater Denver. Guillermo became President and CEO of the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Metro Denver in 2012. Although, no longer in the government sector, he brought together the Hispanic businesses in the Denver Metro Area to use their influence to help the community at large. Following the death of his father in 1998, Guillermo returned to Cuba to trace his remaining family and bring closure to a forty-year absence from his homeland. This trip motivated Guillermo to write his memoirs, titled, Boxing for Cuba. It was published in 2007. He published a sequel in 2018, titled Catch and Release in which he chronicles the challenges of starting life over in your sixties after three unexpected challenges changed the trajectory of his life. Today, Guillermo continues his writing and public speaking. He uses his skills to shed a light on the life mysteries and lessons he has deciphered to inspire others to seek their own self-fulfillment and feel empowered to make the world a better place.

Bill Bridges, PhD, is a writer, motivational speaker, business consultant, and coach. Bill’s early career teaching undergraduate and graduate history courses at the University of Nebraska, Towson University, and American Military University drove his curiosity about how adult learners process and retain information. From there, his work in identifying effective adult education delivery methods led to a focus on instructional design and developing education for Johns Hopkins University. His experience and leadership abilities led to positions as a senior leader delivering scientific educational content and professional certification programs for multiple non-profit organizations. Even while at the peak of his professional career, Bill realized that although working in helping non-profits achieve their goals was rewarding, his work did not use his greatest strengths. He had long let his talent and passion for writing languish and devoted almost no time to his creative pursuits. He left his corporate role to join his wife in their business consulting practice, The Creative Gameplan™️, published his first novel Blood and Salvation, and began work on the 2nd book in the series. During the course of his own struggle with career satisfaction, how he expressed his creativity, and search for his life purpose, he became increasingly aware of, and concerned with, the alarming global rise in the suicide rate among men in their 30s and beyond. He committed himself to helping those men (and those who love them) change the way they see themselves. He developed a unique approach to addressing the role of men in society and founded The Creative Man movement to reach at-risk men and give them hope that it is never too late to create a life full of meaningful connections and relevance.
