Motivating Audiences on and off stage
Don’s road to becoming a published author is a testament to perseverance.
He started writing his autobiography, One Foot On The Podium, shortly after the Sydney Paralympics in 2000
. It took 14 years to finish, but readers reckon it’s worth the wait.
Critics gave it the thumbs up too, with Don winning a silver medal for the Best Regional Non-Fiction release at the Independent Publisher Book Awards in 2016.
Don’s second book, One Foot Beyond The Podium, was published in 2018 and received just as much love as his debut.

Incredibly engaging
Don was one of the host’s recently at Ready Set Connect in Bundaberg.
He was funny, engaging and I have passed along all his details to my company CEO as we would love to have him as a Motivational Speaker for our team meetings. Cannot wait to hear him present again!
Amazing feedback from our whole team
You were absolutely one of the key highlights of the day and the positive feedback in relation to your keynote speech has been overwhelming. Thank you again for being so easy to work with and I hope we cross paths again in the future.
Makes you believe anything is possible
Don, you have a way of capturing your audience like no other.
Your willingness to share your stories with such transparency helped us to see that our differences are actually our strengths… and we’ve had some of our most change resistant people say things like: he made me believe anything really is possible!
High Recommended!
Don combines real life lessons with humour and passion. I highly recommend Don’s motivational talks, be it addressing a Board of Directors, a Sales Team, Production Staff, or even little Jonnie’s Footy Team. Don has captivating learnings for all!
The whole team loved him!
Don’s approach to life was an inspiration to not only myself but my whole team. The fact that Don gets excited by oxygen has inspired me to get excited by not only the big things that happen in my life but also the small speed humps that we all overcome on a daily basis as well!
If only one person from the group was to take on board 10% of dons attitude then my business would be a better place!
Positively Inspirational
Don was an outstanding success. His bright, engaging personality, and natural sense of humour meant that staff could relate to him.
Don is an ordinary person with an extraordinary story. Don is certainly entertaining, but more than that, he is positively inspirational.
Inspires you to be a better human
I have known and worked with Don across numerous projects, and have seen firsthand the power his story has on shifting mindsets.
Couple this with his clever and unique approach to engaging people, if you engage Don you’ll not only walk away with many tools but you’ll walk away a better human!
