Today’s guest is Garret Biss, a retired Marine Corps Pilot, addiction recovery coach, and TEDx Speaker. After retiring in 2015, Garret faced anxiety, depression, and displacement, turning to alcohol until suicidal ideation spurred change. Mentoring helped him overcome addiction, rediscover his identity, and reignite his passion for life. He co-founded an addiction recovery residence, created a recovery program based on positive psychology, and developed ValiantPath™️, specifically for veterans. Garret will share his journey, work with veterans, and the role of coaching in mental health.

Summary

Garret Biss, a veteran and coach, shares his journey of personal development and helping other veterans reconnect with themselves. He emphasizes the importance of understanding the root causes of pain and addressing them, rather than relying on substances or behaviors as coping mechanisms. Garret highlights the difference between coaching and therapy, with coaching focusing on leveraging existing strengths to create positive outcomes. He also emphasizes the need for self-compassion and self-worth, as well as the importance of surrounding oneself with compassionate and supportive individuals. The conversation explores the challenges of transitioning out of the military and finding a new sense of purpose. The transition from military service can be traumatic, as veterans lose the connection, positive identity, and sense of meaning that the military provided. Many veterans struggle with mental health challenges, addiction, and a deflated self-worth.
