As an author and Childhood Trauma Motivational Speaker, Clark now considers himself a “hope dealer.” But this wasn't always the case. “I didn't grow up on love, affection, a wonderful mom and dad that just loved on me. I grew up on survival,” reflected Clark, “Over the years, I learned how to turn nothing into something.” After attempts to kill Clark failed, Clark was brought into the world with an imprisoned biological father and a mother unfit to raise a child. Brutally abused until the age of five by his birth parents, Clark was abandoned by those same parents at a psychiatric hospital, where the facility ultimately placed him in a shelter “for unadoptable kids”. On this, Clark said, “...Every kid is adoptable…Every kid deserves love. Every kid deserves a family.” Despite his own trauma, Clark knew this cycle of abuse had to end with him. He said, “But I had to make sure that I was going to be conscious and intentional when I was an adult to pass on generational blessings to my kids and not generational cycles or generational curses.” Clark did not know how to read or write until he was eight or nine years old, did not know how to speak at a level commensurate to his age, and could not walk the steps alone or run until he was seven. Given the abuse he faced and the labels given to him, Clark went through a series of foster homes in the area and was given one more chance to find a family before the state would take him to another facility. After a failed attempt to run away, Clark found a family willing to work with him: two teachers. “What helped me was those two educators, those two teachers and permanency,” said Clark. With patience and courage, these two educators transformed Clark's life, while providing a creative outlet for Clark to excel in. What made a difference for Clark was this connection to people. Since then, the number one complaint amongst students Clark has surveyed is that they feel unheard. “I've learned that the power of connection is meeting them where they're at, listening, acknowledging, validating, and being that positive modeling adult,” said Clark. This means that coming to school can be and should be a safe place for those who feel unheard.

Happy September friend! What a better way to welcome in September than with some powerful content & a GIVEAWAY! In honor of my birthday month, I want to post an episode each week talking about life lessons that I have learned in the past 28 years of my life; both from the good and the not so good! Week 1 we are kicking it off with talking about 3 very important lessons I learned the first 7 years of my life. As keynote speaker Derek Clark once said: "When what limits us today is because of a traumatic moment of our past, we need to recognize and transform it”. Also, I want to do a giveaway this month! I have received so much feedback & love, that I am just feeling so grateful and want to give back as a way of saying thank you!   To Enter the GIVEAWAY:  Make sure you are connected with me on Instagram -  https://www.instagram.com/fearnotincluded/   3 Winners will be receiving a gift card from me!  

Derek Clark, best known as The Rapping Dad from his viral YouTube videos, is an inspiring motivational speaker and the author of Never Limit Your Life.   Although you might see Derek having fun with his wonderful family online and think “this guy has it made,” things weren't always going so well for him.   Derek spent 13 years of his life in the Alameda County foster care system, where he struggled with rejection, humiliation, abuse, emotional distress, and overwhelming anxiety.   The abuse and abandonment, naturally, felt like a curse – but it turned out to be one of Derek's greatest blessings. Derek believes he thrives as a leader because of his painful past, compassion for others, and "No Excuse" attitude.   Now, Derek's life mission is to help others find the mental strength to recognize and take advantage of their opportunities. His keynotes are based on true-life trials and triumphs, inspiring thousands to overcome adversity and fear.   Although it probably didn't seem so important at the time, one of the most influential moments of Derek's childhood was when he was first introduced to rap, and rap battles in particular. “I was always getting in trouble for fighting with my fists, but what if I could use my mouth and tongue as a weapon, instead of my fists?”   Rap helped Derek, for the first time, deal with his tumultuous inner world – and this was life-changing. When your inner world is a mess, your outer world is going to reflect that. But “rap was a taxi to my spirit, and it let me get the inside stuff, the crap, out.”   We all get to choose how we live, and we get to choose our attitude. You're only ever one thought away from another positive thought, and that can make all the difference. --     Resources: Learn more at iwillnevergiveup.com Connect with Derek: Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | YouTube Never Limit Your Life by Derek Clark Listen: Hope Dealers Podcast Watch: “It's not about your IQ, it's about your I WILL: Derek Clark at TEDxGreenbrookSchool” --   We are brought to you by the Lawton Marketing Group, a full service advertising and design agency serving companies and entrepreneurs at all levels.
