Chris Dorris
As a Mental Toughness Coach, Chris is ultimately in the business of Success Coaching. He helps people close the gap between how their lives are and how they want them to be.
He started his career as a social worker working on the streets of Atlantic City, helping the mentally ill, drug addicted and homeless populations upgrade their lives. Over the course of those several years, he observed that some of those folks – as a consequence of their belief and their persistence – were able to overcome some pretty serious challenges. That experience, in retrospect, was the perfect foundation for what would become his vocation.
He then decided to marry his passion for the power of the human spirit with his passion for sports. So he moved to Arizona to attend graduate school at Arizona State University. He created an internship with the Men’s Golf Team which evolved into a paid position as the formal Mental Toughness Coach. Over the course of those ten years he really learned a ton about the mechanics of training the mind. His new mission was to coach professional and amateur golfers. And he did that.
Since then, he discovered that the Mental Toughness tools that he was using with many of the world’s greatest athletes were perfectly applicable to many other disciplines beyond sport. He is coaching several of the top performing sales teams and leaders from multiple Fortune 500 companies. He has trained the minds of world famous actors, NFL and NHL Coaches, business executives, Super Bowl Champions and billionaires. He can honestly say he lives a work-free life. Because he truly loves what he does, and he loves the folks with whom does it.
Chris is the author of two books: The Daily Dose: Start All 365 Days of Your Year With a Dose of Mental Toughness in 30 Seconds or Less, and Creating Your Dream: Confidently Stepping into Your Own Brilliance, and several audio programs including the Creating Your Dream Audio Course, The Edge: Mental Toughness for Miraculous Golf, and ALL IN! as well as the online course, ALL IN! 2.0.
