“Craig offers something very unique to his clients.
He is quick to identify areas that the client could benefit from improving - whether it be in race, training or day to day life conditions. He talks the client through how to make these positive changes happen, and most importantly, teaches the client how to take ownership for these changes. His passion for his work is very evident.
I love how Craig gives me the tools to go ahead and achieve my goals. Craig and his ability to release the mind to do what it is capable of, is absolutely a large component of my training as a professional athlete. Thank you Craig!”

““Working with Craig Willard at u-discovered has been such a blessing for me. The timing was amazing. I’ve known Craig since he was a youngster, but wasn’t fully aware of what an accomplished listener and advisor he had become. Craig was remarkably supportive and compassionate yet skillfully adept at guiding me to focus on what I really wanted to accomplish. My personal and professional life was in need of key adjustments and I wasn’t focusing on the necessary changes until we broke it down together. I’ve been surprised after every session, thinking, “That certainly makes sense!” Looking back at the process, I am very pleased at how Craig walked me through the distractions and excuses to focus on key goals I wanted to accomplish and help me take steps to get there. I’m still amazed at how thinking objectively allowed me to make substantive changes in my life! I have left an unfulfilling job, understand what I really want in a relationship, and have made changes to put my financial goals in perspective. He was patient and took it one step at a time and although, I am still working on a few things, it no longer seems insurmountable now. If you are considering starting the coaching process, you will be inspired and excited after your first meeting with Craig Willard.””
