Who Is Cody Deal?

CODY DEAL is a performance coach for professional athletes, actors, and entrepreneurs.

In his youth, he was most known for being homeless in his 20’s sleeping in his car trying to make a Hollywood “dream” come true. Believing in the power of manifestation and always wanting to become a superhero on TV, Cody became the star of the Syfy Original Movie, ALMIGHTY THOR, playing the young hero, Thor, starring opposite of Richard Grieco (21 JUMP STREET) and Patricia Valasquez (THE MUMMY).

Being over 6 feet 3 inches, and playing collegiate football and basketball, Cody was the ideal candidate physically, yet it was his young innocence growing up in Kansas and his big heart that made him the prime candidate to play this unique “coming of age” story of the God of Thunder. It premiered on the Syfy channel in the USA to 1.7 million people and went on to premiere in dozens of other countries, being seen by millions more across the globe.

Cody was highly-received internationally and has cultivated an array of international fans. ALMIGHTY THOR streamed on Netflix for 3 years.

Despite Cody’s boy dream of starring in his own movie as a superhero coming true, he comes from humble beginnings. He was raised by a single parent, his mother, whom recently died at just 67-years-old. Her own philosophy to life taught Cody a technology too many people overlook: that the stories we tell ourselves define us, and those definitions become the program we operate from throughout our lives.

His mom, from an early age, taught him to be responsible for what he believed. His mom was a New Age nut, and gave Cody an early exploration into many types of thought. This was built in stark contrast of growing up in a small Kansas town of 1,100 in the 90's as any belief outside of a white-washed bible belt small town mentality was frowned upon.

His mom was very inclusive; unlike the the town that was exclusive and didn't like outsiders, his mom brought in and housed other mom's, sons, and daughters to live with her and Cody and his two brothers when times were rough for others. No matter who someone was, they were special in the eyes of his mother. This was deeply instilled into Cody's psyche.

Being globally renowned for his world-class physique, the people who know Cody on a personal level know him for his contagious smile and for his big heart. HIs decades of dedication to his own personal development and his ability to raise the vibe in everyone he encounters makes him leave a heartfelt impression.

As a star athlete and a 1st Team All-State basketball player, Cody played basketball and football at Butler Community College. When Creighton University came to scout/recruit his team, they watched the team practice for hours.

Cody was not a starter. But, no matter where life stacked up with him, he gave his ALL, no matter what.

Afterwards, the head coach of Creighton University addressed the entire team and started off by saying, "After watching all of you for hours play, practice, and compete, I hate to say this, but there's no player I would want for my team... except one."

"Scouting all of you, this kid isn't the best-skilled athlete yet, he may not have the reputation, but he has something that is intangible. When this guy stepped onto the court," as he points and singles out Cody Deal, "ALL of you played harder. All of you got better. Both teams did. Even the guys he was playing against. That's the quality I'm looking for in a player."

Cody was shook. He hadn't yet grasped the influence and power he had on others. And it would take over a decade later before he fully became aware.

That inherent power Cody was able to tap into is equally in each of us; Cody is adamant that there is nothing special about him; he teaches that we all have access to higher dimensions of living; we just need to learn how to cultivate and tap into these energy systems.

Cody teaches that we all may look differently physically, but we all share the same hardware: the same mind. He preaches that he literally is no different than any other, except in the way in which he uses his mind and how he focuses. And that can be taught and it is duplicatable, and it is what he teaches to some of the top athletes, actors, and entrepreneurs in their sport or careers.

In Cody's early youth, he had unrelenting passion and devotion to his endeavors. And although he had an immensity of zest, he had difficulty managing and honing it. In essence, Cody was all over the place, and although he accomplished much, he also got in his own way simply because he didn’t have the right tools for self-management and navigation. These shortcomings have been a great learning grounds for helping others bypass his same mistakes. ​

In 2022, Cody is launching The Cody Deal Show on YouTube. It is a show dedicated to empowering men to perform at their peak, both mentally and physically. The show will empower and educate men to help them find strategies to perform better; develop more passion; equilibrium; strategies for trauma, anxiety, and fear; to become a better person; and to be a leading-edge coach for the millennial man.

CODY is REAL. It's what makes him contagious. Wearing too many masks kills our vibrant energy. He teaches the only way to be successful is to let go of all the masks and split-personalities and embrace the totality of YOU. By removing all the boundaries, he teaches how we become unlimited.

Cody is the perfect blend of SPIRITUALITY and SEXUALITY. Known for his deep thinking and his global physical appeal, it is his mission to bridge these two ‘supposed’ opposites together that humanity has bestowed with religion as sacred and sexuality as sin.

Cody has been an icon in the “skin game” industry for years selling over 5,000 copies of his nude body empowerment Cody Deal Calendar, a bold artistic expression celebrating the male human form. Paradoxically, while he's doing this, he's teaching spiritual technologies and strategies to private clients on public platforms, combining many teachings, philosophies, and his own mental technologies.

Swami Vivekananda, Krishnamurti, Buddha, Sadhguru, Alan Watts, Esther Hicks, Wayne Dyer, Joe Dispenza, and many more master educators in mental training are inspirational figures for Cody.

Spending hours every day for nearly two decades studying these great master teachers and deeply exploring his own mind, it has given Cody a mental rolodex of philosophical strategies he knows deeply.

His goal in 2022 is to use The Cody Deal Show to present, create, and orchestrate all this highly-curated material to help men redefine themselves at the most fundamental level in hopes to eradicate most of their suffering. He feels he his approach will be revolutionary for the modern man.
