Identity. Relationships. Work.

Are you
courageous?

You’ve learned to create results. Are you willing to face the man underneath the success?

The loneliness few people see. The pressure of everyone counting on you. The distance from God and the people you love. The need to escape what you don’t know how to face.

Who are you when you have nothing to prove and nothing to hide behind? Have the courage to find out.

A place to begin

Success can make it harder
to see what matters.

You can build thriving businesses and influence thousands of people, yet have no one you can tell the whole truth about how you’re doing.

You can build substantial wealth and feel trapped by the business, lifestyle, and responsibilities it takes to sustain it.

You can want to follow Jesus and still feel you have to earn, control, and prove. You know how to achieve. You’re less sure how to trust God or rest in his love.

You can provide well for your family, yet struggle to connect deeply with the people who matter most to you.

The same drive that helped you succeed can make those patterns difficult to recognize. Seeing them clearly creates room to choose how you want to live.

Your work can be profitable and serve your life and the people around you.

The Live Courageous approach

Your whole life belongs
in the conversation.

Your relationship with God is the source from which the rest of your life flows. You’ve built on your strengths and seen what you can accomplish. Here, we address what achievement hasn’t resolved: how you see yourself, how you connect with others, and what drives the way you live.

01 / IDENTITY

Know who you are.

Understand what’s driving you and bring it into alignment with who God made you to be. Find peace in an identity that doesn’t depend on what you achieve.

02 / RELATIONSHIPS

Be more present.

Recognize what keeps you guarded or distracted. Bring honesty, courage, and openness to the people you love, making room to be known and deepen connection.

03 / WORK

Lead from your strengths.

Clarify what’s yours to carry and where you need support. Put your gifts to work for profitable results, greater freedom with your time, and a positive impact on others, without letting work define your worth.

Meet Charles Shivers

Charles Shivers, founder of Live Courageous
Charles ShiversFounder, Live Courageous

I’ve helped build and lead businesses, developed workforce solutions serving Fortune 500 companies, and coached approximately 1,000 people over ten years. Today, I own Transformed Talent Partners and lead Live Courageous.

My strength is making sense of complex, tangled situations. I stay with the complexity long enough to recognize the underlying pattern, distill what matters into clear, actionable truth, and help you move forward.

That ability has also been shaped by my own life. I’ve had to confront patterns I couldn’t initially see, question beliefs I relied on, and take responsibility for changing. My relationship with God has been central to that process, and it shapes how I work with other men.

I bring business experience, personal understanding, and the willingness to tell you the truth. Together, we put that understanding to work in the decisions and relationships that matter.
