Bringing Joy Back to the Classroom. Educators (teachers, administrators and staff) did not enter education for the pay or daily accolades from society; they are in it because they care about kids. The standardized testing craze and pandemic have terrified students, overwhelmed parents and led many great educators to quit. Come join Danny as he reminds you of your importance as an educator in the every day development of children. He’ll show you how to laugh, sing, dance and play in order to bring the joy back into education.

​"Receive First. Give Second". Giving is not the only path to fulfillment. By embracing support, love, and help from others, we can build our resilience, self-worth, and emotional wellbeing. By growing our capacity to receive, we set the stage for even greater generosity and impact in our personal worlds, creating a ripple effect of positive impact, love, and growth.

The Power of One:  I spent decades hiding from my story. Now, I travel the world inspiring others to harness the power within theirs. With every keynote, podcast and book, I share my perspective to wake you up from accidental living and invite you to embrace three simple truths: 1) Our life is a sacred, awesome gift, 2) We get to choose our mindset in every situation, no matter how bleak it seems, and 3) Together, we can change the world, starting with our own.  John lives with his wife in St. Louis, MO.
