A genuine role model who is going for it with modern day advice spoken by a woman who knows her stuff and making it all happen. She ain’t just talking the talk, she’s walking the walk. The real deal!

You nailed it. This is about showing up, doing the work, and ignoring the noise. Codie leads from the front so the rest of us can follow with purpose. Stay in the fight and keep thinking different.

What feels like an endless amount of resources, support, and guidance. Being in a “room” with like-minded, motivated people is contagious in the best way. The energy is empowering, the teamwork is real, and you can genuinely feel everyone cheering each other on. This academy truly delivers community, clarity, and momentum. Highly recommend.

This is exactly what we’re aiming for, Rachelle. When you surround yourself with people who are all pushing forward, it becomes impossible to stay stuck. That mix of clarity, support, and momentum is what makes this more than just a course. Grateful to have you in the Academy.

Since joining, I’ve gained so much — from mastering how to buy, value, and structure a business, to understanding SDE calculations, deal frameworks, and due diligence in depth. The Deal Navigator alone has been a huge unlock, but the support goes way beyond that: Direct lender connections and financing guidance Access to BizScout, Vertical IQ, and Doola memberships A deep video library packed with real-world insights Coaches who actually answer questions and guide us through the tough spots. And a community of like-minded operators pushing each other to win Honestly, the combination of knowledge, resources, and people here has been a game-changer. Grateful to be part of it — and huge thanks to the Contrarian team and coaches for building something this impactful.

The Contrarian Thinking group is amazing. They really make buying a business into a manageable process with tons of support, coaching and encouragement. Their toolset for evaluating a business purchase is very effective and the additional tools and partnerships are invaluable! I have really appreciated my experience working with them.
