Episode Synopsis
Popular motivational speaker and entertainer David Roche discusses his book, Standing at the Back Door of Happiness: And How I Unlocked It, exploring the beauty found in unusual places with elegant humour and compassion.
David Roche was born with vascular malformation of the face, which he sees as an “incredible gift” that has forced him to look inside for beauty and self-worth. It has also helped him to see the beauty in others, despite their flaws, allowing him to live in a world of beautiful people. With a refreshingly good-natured outlook, Roche muses on disability, activism, religion and family.
