EMPOWERED THROUGH ADAPTATION David Powell

We are proud to present Motivational Speaker and Limb Difference Advocate David Powell. David's journey embodies the resilience of the human spirit. Born without hands and with malformed legs in New Orleans, he adapted early, using his feet and an electric wheelchair.  His life took a dark turn with his mother's overdose and his subsequent struggle with addiction during high school. However, David overcame these adversities and now, as a motivational speaker and married father of four, he inspires others with his story of hope, resilience, and the boundless potential within each person.  David's talks motivate others to pursue their dreams and harness the power of a positive mindset, proving through his life that despite significant challenges, one can live a life full of joy, positivity, and purpose.  The AMP'D UP211 Video Podcast is hosted by Rick Bontkowski, a right-below-knee amputee.
