BOLD was an experience that I never knew I needed. This is a group event that you force you to dive deeper and become stronger. Your team in this experience will become lifers. Driven doesnt only do BOLD I have taken a few different classes with the team at driven and each one is better than the next.

Jazmin R.

I committed to the BOLD Advanced Leadership program in January 2025 and the experience was absolutely life-changing. I connected with myself and set REAL goals for my life: both my personal life and my professional life. The relationships I built with my other classmates will be connections that I have for life. I highly recommend the BOLD Advanced Leadership course for anyone who is ready to make a commitment to themselves and go ALL IN.

Brad A.

I loved my experience with Driven Leadership. I experienced a team-building retreat that helped my team get to know each other better, learn more about everyone's strengths and tendencies, build trust, and have fun. I am thankful for what this program provided for me.

Caroline C.

Life Changing experience compressed into 48 hrs. Probably the most challenging and rewarding thing I have every done.

Darren E.

Bold is as intense of an experience as I have ever had, pushing you to confront your vulnerabilities and uncertainties, at times leaving you feeling fully exposed. However, the expert coaching, constructive feedback, and unwavering team support ultimately transform moments of challenge into opportunities for profound personal and professional growth, leaving you stronger and equipped with newfound clarity.

Hanna H.

The two and a half days at BOLD Driven Leadership were life changing for me! I will take everything I learned and apply them with much more enthusiasm in both my personal and professional life. Thank you Mary and Eric McGrath for inspiring such bold and positive changes in me.

Isabella C.

BOLD Leadership training is amazing. Sometimes its hard to see in ourselves what is holding us back. We all deserve to live our best life possible and Bold Leadership Training will help you do that.

John D.

BOLD is one of the hardest and most rewarding classes I’ve ever taken. It was amazing and intense!! It was the first time I had experienced being whole heartedly FREE! I will be forever grateful to the team of people leading and encouraging me!

Julie C.

I can’t say enough good things about the BOLD program! It was truly an amazing experience that I would recommend to everyone. I walked out of it completely transformed into the person I always aspired to be. The tools and lessons I gained were invaluable, empowering me to make meaningful changes in my life. If you’re looking for a program that challenges you, inspires you, and equips you to grow, BOLD is the way to go!

Maryn O.

It is hard to describe the value that I got from my experience at BOLD. This 48 hours experience was a pivot point, or a marker that I will look back on and see as a turning point in my relationships, work and impact on the world. I was pushed to a level I didn't know I had and came away with a self awareness that will impact the way I walk through life. This is NOT for everyone. But if you want to level up, let go and go all in, this is the place to do it.

Nicky B.

What an incredible experience. I am so grateful I was given the opportunity to go through this course and I will never forget the time I spent and how it impacted me. If you are considering doing this course, I would highly recommend it. We only get to go through life once, so why not go all in? Driven Leadership will surely help you get there.

Raleigh G.

I am extremely thankful for the opportunity to attend the BOLD class through Driven Leadership. It was one of the most intense and rewarding leadership classes I have attended. I have sent multple team members through this class and to watch the personal growth for each of them is amazing.

Richard J.

Everyone........I repeat. EVERYONE deserves to attend a course through Driven Leadership. This has been one of the top 5 defining moments of my life and I truly can't recommend the BOLD: Advanced Leadership course enough. For anyone looking to become a better version of themselves and show up for the people in their lives, THIS IS THE PLACE! Thanks to the McGrath Family for creating this course!!!
