Join the Indie Books family of speakers and authors for a roundtable discussion of how to have more impact and influence. This week we are joined by Darren LaCroix, author of "17 Minutes To Your Dream."
Darren LaCroix’s journey is a real-life underdog story filled with humor and hope. After a failed business in 1992, Darren took a dare and took the stage at an open-mic night at a Boston comedy club. He bombed miserably. It was horrible. The headliner that night told him to "keep your day job, kid." Friends told him that his dream of making people laugh for a living was crazy and stupid. He didn't listen. He may have been born without a funny bone in his body, but Darren possessed the desire to learn and the willingness to fail. This self-proclaimed student of comedy is living proof that anything can be learned. Less than nine years later, in 2001, Darren outspoke 25,000 contestants from fourteen countries to become the World Champion of Public Speaking. Ironically, it was with a funny speech. Some said it was one of the best speeches in the history of the contest. Since that victory, he has delivered keynotes in every state in the United States and forty-four international cities. He is passionate about showing people that if you pray, find the right mentors, and become a sponge, anything is possible.
