Answers to the questions we hear most.

CRAVE is a human skills training program. It develops five skills that shape how people lead, perform, connect, and grow: Courage, Resilience, Awareness, Visualization, and Execution.

It is more than a talk. A CRAVE engagement includes instruction, a workbook, activities and exercises, guided practice, short daily practices, and a shared vocabulary that keeps the work alive between sessions.

Courage, Resilience, Awareness, Visualization, and Execution. Each letter is a skill that can be trained, practiced, and strengthened.

Most training makes the plan better. CRAVE makes the people better at carrying the plan out.

It sits alongside technical, product, and process training rather than replacing any of it. Teams that go through CRAVE tend to get more out of the other training they are already doing, because the human skills underneath it are stronger.

Organizations that want to invest in their people, and individuals who want to train these skills for themselves.

Within an organization it works for new leaders, experienced leaders, sales teams, and whole departments. The framework stays the same and the examples change to match the room.

Yes. [The Evidence](/the-evidence) page lists the meta-analyses behind the framework, links each one, and states plainly where the research pushes back.

We publish the limits alongside the support. No single study proves the CRAVE framework, and the page says so.

There are three main formats: a keynote, a half-day or full-day workshop, and the complete CRAVE Training Experience. New Leader Training and sales leadership engagements are also available.

[For Organizations](/for-organizations) describes each one and who it suits.

Through a discovery conversation. Every organizational engagement begins with discovery, and it is included at no additional cost.

You do not have to arrive with the format chosen. Bring the audience, the goal, and the moment your people are facing, and we will work out the shape together.

A conversation, or several, about your people, your goals, and the moments where the plan is asking the most of your team. It is how the examples, the format, and the level of support get matched to your organization.

It depends on the format, the size of the group, and the level of support. Pricing is discussed during discovery, once the shape of the engagement is clear.

[Start an organizational conversation](/start-your-journey#organizational-inquiry) and we can talk it through.

It varies by format. A keynote reaches a large room. A workshop and the complete experience work best with a group small enough for people to practice and be heard.

Group size is one of the first things discovery settles.

Tell us where you are and when you are hoping to run it, and we will work it out during discovery.

The individual CRAVE experience is being built now. You can [join the waitlist](/for-individuals#waitlist) to hear the moment enrollment opens.

The waitlist asks for nothing but a name and an email. No payment is requested.

A self-paced video experience, a workbook, tools and exercises, Gap Training, and a scheduled conversation with Mike.

[For Individuals](/for-individuals) describes how you will move through it.

It is in production now. Joining the waitlist is how you will hear first.

Ask it. Mike answers these personally. Use the [question form on Start Your Journey](/start-your-journey#individual-questions).

Three ways, whichever suits you. Use a form on [Start Your Journey](/start-your-journey), email [mj@simplehealthylife.com](mailto:mj@simplehealthylife.com), or call [781-367-9298](tel:+17813679298).

Choose "Help me choose" on the organizational form, or reach out directly. Working out the right fit is part of the conversation, not something to settle beforehand.
