Michael J. Grimes

Michael became deeply committed to his personal journey after intense experiences led to his first awakening in his mid 20’s. He solidified a foundation of self-development and spirituality that supported him in creating the life of his dreams. After a few years of travel, he landed in San Diego, where he built a family before opening a revolutionary, self-discovery-based charter school. He then bought and saved his little beach towns 100 year old hardware store, restoring it's old time feel while adding a modern vibe. He now facilitates moments of revelation and joy while supporting people of all ages to remember who they truly are and live fully alive.

Michael is a student, teacher, writer and creator. He's a dedicated father to two angels of daughters and a lover of Mother Earth. He’s playful and childish, wise and mature. An energy worker and light sherpa. A philosopher and spiritual seeker who’s grounded in reality. He’s high vibrational vibes. He skis big mountains and rides big waves. A musician and gardener. A creator. He’s authentic and real, and works to improve himself and the world around him. He’s flawed. But growing every day.

He's the author of America's Awakening and High on Being.
