On this episode of Next to Madison, I sat down with Darryll Stinson, and his story is one of those that really stays with you.

We get into where he started, what he went through, and the moment he realized he had to actually go inward and deal with things if he wanted his life to change. It’s honest, it’s real, and it’s the kind of conversation that makes you look at your own stuff a little differently—in a good way.

What’s incredible is how he’s taken that experience and turned it into helping other people do the same. He’s now a powerful speaker and a TEDx coach, working with some of the top speakers to craft talks that have reached millions. We also talk about what actually makes a message connect and why some people’s stories land… and others just don’t.
