DONOVAN IS PASSIONATE ABOUT SPEAKING BECAUSE HE UNDERSTANDS HOW POWERFUL THE MINDSET IS

Donovan knows first hand what it feels like to fail and not feel good enough or seen as an individual. Through a series of leaning on mentors and getting the help he needed he was able to break that mindset and overcome what he thought was impossible in just 5 short years.

He now wants people to know that their condition is not their conclusion and that by following a simple set of strategies that he used to overcome his struggles, that anyone can achieve their wildest dreams.

AS A PRINCIPAL, I FELT MOTIVATED

"Donovan has an electrifying personality. After the speech, I felt motivated myself. I know our students and staff are excited to get back into the classroom and I know they will take this with them for the rest of their lives. I highly recommend him, you have to reach out, you have to bring Donovan to your school to let your people know that they can overcome. Two thumbs up for Donovan!"

I CAN BE A CHAMPION!

"Next season I will be on the track team of Duke University as a blue devil. I really struggled with not knowing if I can compete with the best of the best in college track and field. But Donovan spoke at my graduation party today and it was so amazing! I feel more confident that I can be a Champion!"
