As the Director of the Pastoral Curriculum at Swan Christian College, I want to commend Adam as a motivational speaker to teenagers and to young adults. Adam has presented many seminars to our staff and students over the past few years which include topics such as resilience, bullying, self esteem and decision making. Adam’s presentations have been carefully constructed combining crowd breakers, personal stories, details analysis, action plans and question times. Out students have responded positively to Adam’s engaging and thought provoking style, with many commenting on how much they appreciated his wisdom. Adam’s passion for the health and wellbeing of young people is evident in his enthusiasm to continue to expand the work of his organisation Armed For Life. I commend him in his endeavor to equip young people with the tools they need to navigate their way through the difficult journey of adolescence.

I have heard Adam speak and the way he engages the teenagers he talks to is amazing. He has great relevant stories and really has the gift of communication!
