Why I do this work

“I’m passionate about inspiring people to nurture and navigate the three great loves well—God, self, and others—resulting in a life of true relational health and wealth.” Greg Griffin
The framework behind everything Greg teaches

The Three Great Loves

At the heart of our existence is relationship. It is self-evident that we are designed to live in community, not isolation.

At the heart of our relationships are the Three Great Loves: love of God, love of self, and love of others.

The Three Great Loves diagram Three connected loves: God (Creator, Redeemer, Sustainer), self (mind, body, spirit) and others. Identity reveals purpose between God and self; purpose reveals identity between self and others.

Love of God

Our relationship with God is primarily one of identity, that is, understanding who we are. Our identity then reveals our purpose.

Love of self

Our relationship with self is about caring for ourselves, safeguarding our mind, our body, and our spirit.

Love of others

Our relationship with others is primarily one of purpose, as we cannot express our purpose unless we live it out with another. One cannot be anything, helpful, useful, loving, unless there is another to serve. As we live out our purpose, that reveals our identity to others.

Off the clock

I’m a lover of learning. I also love things that bring joy, like rehearsing gratitude, watching videos that inspire laughter, or simply watching wildlife in the backyard. As an avid athlete and fitness guy, my mini claim to fame is completing the 86-mile Athens to Atlanta road skate race. I get excited about pickleball, sports, exercise, and spending time with family. And finding a new healthy dessert treat.

What people say after working with Greg

As a CEO and founder of a non profit in an emotionally demanding industry, I consider it my responsibility to provide internal training for my team that provides a focus on self-care. The SPEEPS plan was the perfect fit for our team and much needed. Greg Griffin was an excellent instructor and his delivery was fantastic.

Nadine PsareasCEO, Hopedealers Worldwide

Greg Griffin has a genuine gift for helping people navigate relationships with greater understanding, compassion, and intention. His warmth, wisdom, and ability to connect with others make even difficult conversations feel approachable and productive. He offers thoughtful perspective and practical guidance that can make a difference in how we communicate, strengthen our connections, and show up for the people who matter the most. It was such a pleasure having Greg as a guest on our podcast Midlife Talkshop to share his insights with our listeners. His ability to help people see things differently and move forward with greater clarity is truly valuable.
