Dave Collier - On Get Paid To Speak

Dave Collier is a best-selling author, international speaker and youth advocate. Most importantly he is a father to two amazing children. He grew up in London, Ontario, Canada expecting to become a police officer. However, a Child Care Worker position at a group home revealed how rewarding one-to-one support with youth can be. After witnessing the positive change made in a teen over twenty-five years ago, Dave decided this was his life’s mission. Dave believes that we all enter the world with our own unique gifts and perspectives and children need to be heard and valued to a greater degree. Currently supporting students in a high school, Dave believes a holistic approach to support is paramount. From personal experience, Dave passionately speaks on parental alienation, intimate partner violence, PTSD and issues facing today’s youth such as mental health. He believes in speaking the truth and is not afraid to show his vulnerability as he recounts his life lessons from a man’s and father’s perspective. Learn more about your ad choices.
