Educator by Day, Dad by Night

The Journey of a Shy Kid

I was the kid with a speech impediment, terrified of speaking.

Fast forward: I’m a:

- Fortune 500 growth consultant
- B2B marketing & sales leader
- University lecturer 

How? 

By embracing the fear and showing up anyway.

If I can do it, so can you.
