The framework that turned a homeless shelter into a TEDx stage — now built for your team.
Dr. India White brings G.R.I.T. training, professional development sessions, and conference keynotes to business owners, executives, and organizations ready to build a culture that doesn't quit.
"Don't let your environment define you. You define you."
At sixteen, Dr. India White was put out of her own home and ended up in a homeless shelter. She built the G.R.I.T. framework out of what got her through it — and now teaches it to the people running teams, companies, and organizations.
#1 international best-selling author with 45+ publications, a 15-year Florida public school math teacher and Assistant Principal, and a contract author for Savvas Learning. Florida Council of Teachers of Mathematics Executive Board Member and Equity & Access Chair, 3-time University of Florida graduate, and a 2022 Gators 40 Under 40 honoree — she translates a resilience story into a system your staff can actually use.
See what business owners bookG.R.I.T. — built for teams under real pressure
Every training and keynote is built on the same four learnable habits.
Growth Mindset
Ability isn't fixed. Effort is the path, and setbacks are the proof your team is stretching.
Resilience
Not the absence of hard quarters. The habit of recovering from them a little faster each time.
Intentional Self-Efficacy
The belief a team can execute — built deliberately through practice, not hoped for.
Time Management
Big goals become achievable when leaders break them into steps a team can take today.
G.R.I.T. training, PD & conferences
Built around your team, your industry, and your goals — not a generic deck.
G.R.I.T. Trainings
Trainings that build the four-pillar framework into your team's daily habits — retention, ownership, and follow-through, not just a morale boost.
Professional Development
Sessions built around your staff's actual challenges — leadership pipelines, customer-facing resilience, or culture during growth or change.
Conference Keynotes
A keynote grounded in a real story — built for business conferences, leadership summits, and association meetings.
Executive & Leadership Coaching
For owners and leaders navigating growth, burnout, or a team that needs a culture reset.
Monthly Seminars & Webinars
Sessions that keep G.R.I.T. active in your organization all year instead of fading after one event.
Virtual Conferences & Meetings
Live virtual sessions for leadership teams and business owners who need flexibility without losing impact.
The TEDx talk, the stages, the press
