Awesome experience with Codie and team. Honest and direct feedback. Talking to other attendees as part of the interactions and program, makes you think even more outside the box, plus everyone there had one goal in mind, grow and own a business (if not yet owning one). Thanks for all you do Codie.

Attending the Contrarian Thinking workshop with Codie Sanchez and her incredible team was a total game-changer. This wasn’t just another hype-filled event — it was packed with real, actionable strategies and hands-on workshops that challenged how I think about business, ownership, and wealth. Codie and the team poured so much value into every session, and the energy in the room was next level. I walked away with a notebook full of ideas and the confidence to start implementing immediately. If you’re serious about scaling your business this is where you need to be.

Codie’s Growth Accelerator is the most tactical, accountability-driven room I’ve ever stepped into. It's meticulously run by the Contrarian Thinking team and packed with a refreshingly balanced crew of driven, diverse badasses who reignited my fire to level up and bring that same impact back home.

I am not yet a member of Codie's community (yet) but have been following her content for well over a year and if the insight she simply gives away for free is any indication of the the value she provides inside the community then I am super impressed. She consistently expands my perspective about business ownership with her LinkedIn and YouTube content. And I can't wait to read her Mainstreet Millionaire book and continue soaking up her wisdom.

I’ve gone from being a business operator to an owner operator and now I’m expanding into more companies. I love Codie’s book Mainstreet Millionaire. I’m using it to create my own portfolio of small businesses. I recently used her new CodieAI and thought it was pretty awesome. Answers were real and seemed like her voice. The advice I got was spot on! This is the kind of thinking I agree with so I guess I’m a Contrarian.

I joined the community in January 2025. I have found incredible value in the course, the resources provided, the collective knowledge of my community peers, and the deal experts we have access to. There is a steep learning curve to business acquisitions but I feel much more capable of climbing it as a result of the community. I also appreciate how responsive the Contrarian Thinking team are; they are regularly iterating on how to organize and present resources in a way that can be easily consumed by and provide the best value to the hundreds of members and their various learning styles. Case in point, in May, I attended the first Contrarian Camp that was essentially a weekend of hands-on workshops with all of the Deal Coaches and roughly 150 community members; this event and the ability to network and create connections IRL with my peers and Coaches was a step-change improvement in my strategy. Through Camp, I able to grasp several mental models for evaluating and structuring deals (which vary by Coach yet are all valuable). As someone who has spent over two decades in corporate, I have wasted time on many superfluous events and workshops and this was nothing like that. I left Camp exceeding my objectives: >10 new connections, greater efficiency in my deal evaluation process, increased awareness of deal structure levers and when to use them, and renewed energy to progress my deals.

Cody and her team are making waves. The newsletter is value packed and the pod is also becoming a must listen. Keep up the good work Team CT!

CT is truly 1 of 1. On my journey thanks in large part to the wisdom of their team. Truly grateful for the content, it continues to inspire and sharpen my edge.
