About Grit Meets Growth

Chris Cathers and John Gamades bring you Grit Meets Growth...more than a podcast—it's a mindset movement. We exist to serve entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, and driven professionals who are chasing growth with intentionality. You’re not here to play small. You’re here to build something that matters—to level up, lead well, and live fully. And you know that growth isn’t random. It requires mindset, discipline, and the right people around you. That’s where we come in. Chris Cathers is the co-founder and CEO of Octellient, an information security expert, advisor and coach, and a cancer survivor. John Gamades is a co-founder and partner at the marketing agency OrangeBall Creative and the author of the Depth Not Width blog. Both are proud husbands, dads, and leaders in all they do. Having experienced adversity, challenges, the pressure of being entrepreneurs. 🔥 WHAT WE BELIEVE You don’t need more hype. You need more intention. We believe growth happens where grit meets mindset—in the uncomfortable, unfiltered places where real leadership is forged. We challenge the status quo. We talk about what most people won’t. And we help people create intentional growth from the inside out. 🎙️ WHAT WE DO Podcast: Bi-weekly episodes that fuel real transformation Coming Soon: Live Events: In-person gatherings and networking with real talk, real connection Growth Conversations: 1:1 and group coaching to align mindset and momentum Community: A network of like-minded builders & doers who sharpen each other
