Manny Garcia, UGP's Director of Recovery, shares his extraordinary journey from owning a successful physical therapy business to building UGP's recovery department, exploring how saying yes to something bigger transformed his life and perspective.

• Leaving behind a thriving business to join UGP in 2018, taking a leap of faith to pursue greater personal growth
• Learning that self-accountability has limits, and how teams expose weaknesses while providing the foundation for unprecedented growth
• Discovering that self-deprecation can be productive but also self-defeating without awareness and moderation
• Building a recovery department by planting seeds in unexpected places and following processes rather than rigid goals
• Finding that behavioral change trumps technology in creating lasting physical transformation
• Recognizing that orthopedic health is the greatest predictor of quality of life in later years, yet most people won't invest five minutes daily in it
• Embracing difficulty, failure and challenging conversations as essential components of growth
• Understanding that true impact comes from unlimited caring and service to others
