Empowerment Awaits You
Think Stronger.
Live Braver. Never Quit.
“I went into SEAL prep as a 100-pound woman with every reason to quit. I walked out unbreakable. Now I teach others how to uncover that same fight inside themselves.”
MEET GINA CASAZZA
I run Mindset Lessons from the Field, a podcast where Special Forces operators, therapists, and high performers share the playbook for resilience. I also lead EmpowerLit™, bringing author visits and mindset training to schools.
I entered Navy SEAL prep under 100 pounds—afraid, unqualified, and determined. I didn’t quit. That season taught me exactly how ordinary people become unbreakable. Now I teach those tools to audiences who want to perform with courage on their toughest days.
