Discovery!
History |
|
|
| |
Founded
in 1998 by Fred Lowder and Brett Stalcup,
Discovery!
was created to provide a balanced approach
to enhancing people’s lives. Fred’s
collaboration and partnership with Dr. Phil
and Dr. Joe McGraw’s group training
workshops in the mid 1980’s helped
lay the foundation for what is now Discovery!
By utilizing some of the most effective
principals from the training workshops,
Discovery!
takes the same principals and presents them
in a more user-friendly format and in a
shorter time frame… all at a more
reasonable tuition. |
|
|
| |
Since
its inception, Discovery!
has seen literally thousands of lives enriched
and broken dreams restored through the use
of time proven tools and basic truths to
life. |
|
|
| |
Discovery!
is a non-profit 501c3 organization. |
