Special Boys to Men Series with D Murphy

Published: June 2, 2020, 9:30 a.m.

Everyone has a dad or father story that has become a cornerstone of their existence. That story may be a painful one or a powerful one but the impact of it stretches into multiple areas of our everyday lives. Join me as I interview 13 influential men about the impact that a father story has had on their education, business, families, and self-care.

Have you ever felt that there was one significant event that completely shifted how you saw life? D Murph shared the impact that his oldest son had on his drive to create a legacy. Creating a legacy is something we hear about often but he became focused on creating a legacy that would carve the D Murph name into history. He wanted to be an example of reaching a common goal while being yourself.

Wanting to give your children something they can carry comes with some humility and transparency. You have to bring them in on the vision by showing them momentum. When D Murph won Podcaster of the Year at the Inaugural SpeakerCon hosted by Cheryl Wood, it proves that his hard work was paying off.

During the 2009 to 2010 time span, D Murph dealt with his most challenging time. The icebreaker for him was that his life sucked. He had dealt with a series of low points that seemed to be sending him into a downward spiral. Instead of excepting defeat, D Murph rose to the challenge by reaching out to his father and having a candid conversation on his podcast. It shifted things for him and made an impact on his listeners.

Don't give up!

Be okay with telling on yourself so others don't get the chance to and understand that it may not always look how you planned it. Confidence and vision go hand in hand. The time to be silent is gone because you may be what someone else needs.
