Todd Sylvester
Todd serves as a formidable Mental Fitness Coach, specializing in assisting individuals wrestling with addiction, anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, and more. He offers personalized mentoring services to clients, both locally and internationally. Todd also earned his SUDC (Substance Use Disorder Counseling) degree from Utah Valley University. Distinguished for his remarkable ability to establish trust quickly, Todd has guided numerous individuals on their path to recovery, rediscovering happiness, and achieving positive behavioral shifts. His unique gift lies in connecting deeply with individuals, helping them unearth their authentic motivations for change, and thus, becoming the catalyst for lasting lifestyle improvements. Todd's profound influence on others finds its origins in his own personal journey — a transformation that carried him from self-hatred and despair to faith and recovery. Transitioning from a belief of being broken to a profound understanding of his state as "Recovered," Todd draws on his personal journey through addiction. He forges authentic connections with thousands of teenagers, young adults, and parents, instilling hope within them.

His Todd Inspires Beliefcast podcast is ranked in the top #150 in the world in Mental Health.

Ganel-Lyn Condie's "The Stewardship Principle," and Rick Heyland's "Learning How to Make it Rain." Todd was selected as one of the 2024 Freedom Award Honorees. He joins an impressive list of previous honorees who have made unique contributions to defending and promoting traditional American values of God, family, freedom, and country. Todd’s loss of freedom did not come on a battlefield of war but through the destructive and relentless chains of addiction and self-hate. A last-minute series of events, fueled by a desperate reach for hope from a Higher Source, finally unlocked his prison. His passion is now to help others escape and regain their freedom.
