This Version™
This Version™ is an identity evolution concept created by Micah Hill, an American keynote speaker, certified coach, and founder of True Basis. It represents the enduring step of evolution within the Resilience Arc™ and Expansion Method™ frameworks—the stage where awareness and intention become embodied through consistent, aligned action.
Overview
This Version™ revisits the hard stuff but responds with sharper tools and stronger perspective. As life unfolds, you don’t start from scratch—you rise from experience. It’s the Pivot and Grit Switch reapplied with more power every time.
It teaches that growth is not a single transformation but a compounding process. Every iteration adds resilience, clarity, and evidence that identity is built through action, not declaration.

The Enduring Step of Evolution
This Version™ represents the Evolution phase of the Expansion Method™ and the Rise stage of the Resilience Arc™. It is where awareness turns to embodiment and clarity turns to consistency.
Leaders use this phase to lock in new standards, behaviors, and boundaries so their growth holds under pressure.
