In the latest episode of the Stories to Create Podcast, Cornell Bunting welcomes Larry Wilcoxson, a Senior Advisory Consultant at the U.S. Capitol, to share his remarkable journey of perseverance and transformation.
Larry's story begins in Immokalee, Florida, a small agricultural town known for its tight-knit community and hardworking spirit. Growing up in an environment filled with both challenges and opportunities, Larry learned the value of resilience early on. However, as a young man, he found himself drawn into the fast-paced, and often dangerous, streets of Miami. The allure of the city led him into trouble, facing obstacles that could have easily derailed his future.
But Larry's story is not one of defeat. It's a testament to the power of second chances and the strength of determination. Through self-reflection, guidance from mentors, and an unwavering belief in his potential, Larry managed to turn his life around. His journey from the streets back to a path of purpose wasn't easy, but it was transformative.
Now, as a Senior Advisory Consultant at the U.S. Capitol, Larry uses his experiences to inform his work, bringing a unique perspective to policy and community engagement. His role allows him to contribute to decisions that impact the nation, and his background gives him a deep understanding of the struggles many face—making him a powerful advocate for change.
In his conversation with Cornell, Larry opens up about the pivotal moments that shaped his life, the lessons he learned along the way, and his passion for giving back to the communities that molded him. His story serves as a beacon of hope for anyone facing adversity, proving that with determination and support, it's possible to rise above challenges and achieve greatness.
Tune in to this inspiring episode of Stories to Create to hear Larry Wilcoxson’s full journey—from the fields of Immokalee to the halls of the White House.
