About David
The story behind it all
One of my clients - a teenage student, English not being her first language - looked me directly in the eye and said in her speech, “I got 100% on my class presentation because of you…” I nearly cried. Which for those who know me, know it’s not that hard! Still, I was deeply moved and a moment I’ll never forget.
Many years before, I sat in the hospital waiting room in the middle of the night. I was alone. I was five years old. My mom had just gone to say goodbye to my Dad, who suddenly and mysteriously died.
Without having the words to explain it at the time, I suddenly was a sailing ship with no rudder, no sail, and no captain. I spent many years looking for a hero. As a child I imagined I was someone else who was that hero. As a teen, I was an actor, many times playing the hero (or the villain - but isn’t the villain the hero in their own story?). As an adult I continued to play those roles on stage and in film.
I always have been, however, a speaker. I could entertain, impact, move, and motivate an audience. I won contests, earned my degrees and credentials, and gained my experience doing free gigs, lunch 'n learns, and teaching kids public speaking.
What I understood along the way, was that I had to be my own hero. It wasn't easy; I battled through depression, near homelessness, and serious feelings of doubt and fear. But I also discovered I wasn't alone and that there can be path forward. I learned that mental health, vulnerability, and connection with others is vital for us to move into a healthier, happier future.
