Doug & Thea

In the Spring of 2000, Doug & Thea married at the ages of 21 and 19 and exchanged covenant vows. They immediately started their first business together by owning retail furniture stores in Beaverton, Oregon for 10 years. With the high demands of business, family, stress, and many more excuses, they found themselves 100 pounds overweight. During the Summer of 2009, they eventually partnered with the world-class publicly traded company, Optavia, and lost weight. At that point, they decided to dedicate their life to helping others do the same by becoming Health Coaches for the company and building teams of coaches.

By 2014, their services and coaching program had reached all 50 states! Thousands of people were getting healthy, and they were in a place to live and coach from anywhere. Seeking a bigger life and chasing year-round sunshine, they moved their family to Scottsdale, Arizona.

For over a decade, they’ve dedicated themselves to helping average people with above-average desires to live and become the best versions of themselves. As a result, they have helped over 500,000 people completely transform their lives.

In 2018, realizing current education was missing the mark, they co-founded Valor Global Online. Valor is a fully accredited 2nd-12th grade school with an innovative entrepreneur christ-centered approach to meet kids where they are at; be in community, and prepare kids for the world of today vs the the learnings of yesterday. The school is now serving families in 40 of 50 states and over six different countries.

Doug and Thea are in-demand speakers at business conferences, as well as faith conferences with their unique and authentic communication style that creates instant connections with any audience.
In 2019, Doug became a best-selling author when he wrote the most unique book ever written, “Church Boy To Millionaire.” Thea joined Doug as they launched the “Massive Momentum Tour,” a nationwide speaking tour where they spoke to over 15,000 people in 98 days, across 30 states, and filmed a documentary of their journey,

In 2022, Thea authored her best-selling book “Kick Fear in the Face,” and is passionate about traveling the world building Beehive Communities of faith-driven people, helping them conquer the number one killer of dreams, FEAR!

After traveling the world to over 30 countries in the Summer of 2022, and after visiting many different spas and gyms, Doug & Thea had a vision to lay deeper roots in Arizona. Thus, began the vision and the business plan of Hive Fit Club, as they pursued their next level of fitness. Hive fit club iis a world-class facility where anyone pursuing their health can grow and develop in the community of others who are like minded on the same path. Hive Fit Club is a 22,000 square foot gym and spa, centering around connection with others, with a complete smoothie and coffee shop at the center. Hive Fit Club will open in the Fall of 2024.

Doug and Thea are open about keeping Christ at the center of everything! They co-host their very own podcast, “Doug & Thea Unplugged,” where they weekly talk openly about Faith, Family, Fitness, Marriage, Sex, and Money, as a couple who refuses to ignore big topics effecting our generation.

Thea Wood

Early in life, Thea Wood began to listen to the whispering voice of fear, starting her down a path of insecurity and comparison, threatening to destroy what she loved the most in life. As God worked on her heart...breaking chains, saving her marriage, waking her up to massive purpose...she began Kick Fear In The Face, a movement that shows people how to move from fear to faith, confidence, and action and use their God-given talents in marriage, parenting, and business.

She is now a huge investor in people, a serial-prenuer, founder of Valor Global Online, and has impacted over 400,000 lives through her business. Thea's mission is to help leaders overcome the #1 killer of dreams: fear.
