Film/Speaker Series: The Resilience Breakthrough with Jeff Griffin
2019-10-29 17:45 - 19:00, 2019-10-29 11:00 - 12:30 (America/Denver) | The Palm Theater
World-Renowned
Motivational Speaker
Jeff’s powerful, funny, and world-renowned keynote speech will leave your audience smiling, inspired, and believing they too can Solve for POSSIBLE!
Jeff hopes to amplify the power and potential, as a Sherpa of sorts, in 1 million people by 2020 with his transformational message and life-altering experience.
Be a part of the experience!
His keynote is based on the award winning book titled I’Mpossible: Desire. Dream. Do. which he considers to be one of his greatest accomplishment since he got a D- in English and was told he would never be able to write a comprehensive sentence. As a part of this experience you will be given the tools of courage, confidence, and the winning results to overcome the demons of doubt, fear, and complacency which has paralyzed you perhaps from chasing down your dreams in the past.
Jeff understands what it’s like to be paralyzed in the past. After a heartbreaking accident in college, Jeff was physically paralyzed and faced with life-altering decisions that would affect his attitude and future forever. He believes everyone has the power and potential to accomplish the impossible, if they are willing to take the proper steps forward.
There is a casual way and a careful way!
As an ordinary man living life from a wheelchair, Jeff has accomplished some extraordinary things. He played in the 2004 Paralympic games in Athens Greece and is a silver medalist for the USA men’s wheelchair basketball team. Jeff is a National Champion who played for the Utah Wheelin Jazz and is a four-time All-Star MVP. He was the #1 men’s wheelchair tennis player in the State of Utah and won the St. George Marathon. Jeff also has two Guinness Book of World Records.
He earned his Master’s degree in Education and Curriculum and created a worldwide peer-to-peer leadership program for third-world countries, which was recognized at the United Nations in New York.
In his spare time, you’ll find him with his beautiful family, mentoring youth, eating pizza, playing games with friends, and exercising!
He is passionate about progress and peanut butter M&Ms.
Jeff’s teaching style, humor, and personality, which has always made him one of the most liked and sought after teachers during his 16 year career, is what will assist you in making World Record Winners as well!

ABOUT LIKE:

TEF Free Film & Speaker Series Presents: “LIKE” with Guest Speaker Patricia Greenfield
LIKE is an IndieFlix Original documentary that explores the impact of social media on our lives. Technology is a tool. It’s here to stay and social platforms are a place to connect, share and care, but what is really happening? Are we addicted? How do we stop? Where do we start? What do we need to know? By understanding the effects of technology and social media on the brain, on our lives and on our civilization, we can learn to navigate it more safely together.

The goal of this film is to inspire people of all ages, especially kids, to self regulate. It’s about looking in the mirror and empowering ourselves to create balance in our lives and to learn to be there for each other.

Student Screening Tues. 3/26 11am-12pm @ TMHS followed by discussion with Patricia Greenfield
