About Speech Topics

A true American success story, Damon Dunn shares his inspiring program on transformation, resilience, leadership, and how to turn failure into opportunity.

Born in Fort Worth, Texas to a 16-year-old single mother, Damon Dunn grew up in dire poverty, living in a three-bedroom trailer with ten people. Damon grew up hunting and fishing as means to provide food and wore Salvation Army clothes. Quickly learning the value of hard work, he earned a full football scholarship to Stanford, then went on to play in the NFL. Not stopping there, he turned his eye to business, growing a 5-store Dunkin’ franchise into a 30 million-dollar corporation and founding a successful real estate development and investment firm.

From his humble beginnings, Damon was able to break the cycle of poverty through perseverance that he has shown throughout his life. His journey transcends age, race, and geography, and now he inspires audiences to create their own “BOLD” life—sharing his proven program of practical strategies for transformation, resilience, leadership, and how to turn failure into opportunity.
