ABOUT GARRET BISS
Garret Biss is a retired Marine Corps Pilot. Post-retirement in 2015, Garret confronted challenges common among veterans: anxiety, depression, and a sense of displacement. Turning to alcohol as a crutch, it wasn't until suicidal ideation took hold that he sought change. Rather than traditional addiction treatments, Garret's path was shaped by mentoring that emphasized self-worth, rediscovering identity, and tapping into inherent strengths. This approach not only alleviated his addictive behaviors but also reignited his passion for life.
In 2017, he co-founded an addiction recovery residence in North Carolina. For this recovery residence, Garret designed the positivity-focused and strengths-based programming and curriculum which are deeply rooted in positive psychology and the principles of human flourishing.
As a professional recovery coach, Garret works exclusively with military Veterans. Acutely aware of the hurdles they face, he is driven to ensure that veterans’ potential isn't overshadowed by emotional turmoil or addiction. Developed by Garret, ValiantPath™️ is a virtual program tailored specifically for veterans, blending group coaching, one-on-one emotional processing, and evidence-based recovery methods.
Garret believes that developing human potential is key to achieving success in both our personal and professional lives.
“By understanding and harnessing our strengths, resilience, and passions, we can unlock a world of possibilities. Happy and confident employees are more productive and efficient, and studies show that organizations who invest in their employee's well-being reap the rewards.”
Having spent more than a decade teaching the principles of human potential and the science of human flourishing, Garret’s work has helped individuals and organizations around the world to improve their lives and reach their full potential.

As a former division officer in the Marine Corps, Garret has seen the challenges of leading an organization when the workforce is disengaged or unable to “show up;” He’s also witnessed the tremendous joy and excitement when everyone is contributing their best effort, showing up fully, and providing the best of themselves to the mission.
Personally mentored by “America’s #1 Success Coach" and one of the world's preeminent human potential trainers, Jack Canfield (Chicken Soup for the Soul series & #1 NY Times Bestselling Author), Garret has honed a skill for delivering transformational workshops in an engaging, experiential way. Garret has a knack for relating the wisdom of Positive Psychology and the science of human flourishing so it can be applied in “real life” to affect real change.
