Detecting illicit drugs, explosives, and NOW COVID-19. This is must have technology for your agency.
I wasn’t sure if my next guest, Erik Salzenstein, was going to come on the show but I am so happy he did. At age 23, Erik found himself facing life in prison. With his back against the wall, he finally had to face his biggest enemy up until that point…..himself.
Erik had to go to prison to find freedom, but the truth is, he realized he lost his freedom long before that day in the courtroom. He recognized we can be in “prison” without physically being in prison.
He spent 4 years relentlessly pursuing personal growth, coaching, speaking, running workshops, and even being published in a newspaper for a speaking event while incarcerated.
Erik is a powerful and dynamic inspirational speaker whose message focuses on helping people break from from the chains that are holding them back and start creating a life of freedom and impact.
If you want to energize your team, motivate, and inspire them to start taking stronger action Erik’s signature talk “From Prison to Purpose” is an easy decision.
Erik’s story is one that truly shows the power of change and what’s possible. From addiction, lack of identity, and no direction to a life of purpose, fulfillment, and impact.
From defunding the police, to finding your purpose this is a must listen to show.
