Send us a textDerrick Young Jr. is a modern-day wellness warrior, advocate and pioneer committed to living a life of unrestrained excellence and impact. He emodies the principles of courage, citizenship and action that Theodore Roosevelt speaks about in his "Man in the Arena" statement. As the Founder and Executive Director of Leadership Brainery, Derrick and his team are creating pathways to Master’s and Doctoral programs for underrepresented communities – making what once seemed impossible, possible for thousands of college graduates. And with his newest venture, Forever Young Spa — an urban luxury wellness destination in Boston — he’s redefining whom the wellness industry speaks to and whom it serves. In our conversation today we discuss how his own health struggles, his faith in God and his optimism fuel Derek’s ongoing fight for a better tomorrow. And how he has not allowed the chaos and noise of the present moment, to steal his joy. At the Podium WebsiteAt the Podium on IGPatrick on IGFor more information contact Patrick at [email protected]
