DR. THOR CHALLGREN
There’s a moment in life when you realize you’ve been living on autopilot. You’ve been responsible. You’ve done what was expected. You’ve built a life that looks fine from the outside. But inside, a question starts to surface:
Is this it … or is there more?
I know that moment well. For years, I told myself I was just “between things.” But the truth was, I was waiting to feel ready before I allowed myself to begin again. What finally changed everything was this realization:
My life didn’t need more time. It needed a reset
Not a complete overhaul. Not a brand-new personality. Just the courage to interrupt the routine, take action before I felt ready, and start becoming the person I sensed I could be. Once I did, everything opened up. Since then, I’ve:
Delivered a TEDx talk (TEDxAnchorage)
Published multiple books, including What Do You Believe? Really? and Best Vacation Ever
Earned my Distinguished Toastmaster designation
Become an ordained New Thought minister
Received my Doctorate in Consciousness Studies
And finally put my MFA in Screenwriting from UCLA to good use
Today, I’m a speaker, writer, and creator of the 8 Week Vacation, a reinvention framework designed to help people reset their identity and start a new chapter — not someday, but now.
My work blends practical action with spiritual insight, because reinvention isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about becoming someone you recognize. I believe starting again is always available to you. Not because everything is clear. But because you decided to begin.
Fun fact: I love the 1978 Superman movie so much I can quote entire scenes. So yes, I still believe we all have a secret identity waiting to be revealed.
