Josh’s passion for rhythm began in childhood, where he discovered drumming as a positive outlet for processing his emotions. This journey led him to perform with groups like Alo Brasil and The Spoken Hand Percussion Orchestra, as well as facilitate educational programs for diverse audiences. He aims to show others how drumming can transform challenges into strength, regardless of background or resources. Through his work, Josh seeks to inspire others to embrace rhythm as a lifelong tool for well-being and self-discovery.
Josh’s Keynotes:
From Pain to Purpose
We all face tough times in life, but how we handle them makes the difference. Josh’s experiences growing up with a father battling addiction and the loss of his grandfather have deeply influenced his work.
In this keynote, Josh shares how his challenges happened “for him” rather than “to him,” teaching how we can transform painful moments into motivation to pursue our true purpose.
Teamwork and Collaboration
It can be difficult to fully appreciate the many components that contribute to effective teamwork. A successful team moves in sync, supporting each other’s efforts.
This keynote shows how to block out distractions, stay focused, and overcome the varied personalities, ideas, and opinions within a group to work in harmony.
Wellness Through Drumming
Drumming has been a key outlet for Josh’s emotional release and self-care. When words fall short, rhythm can become a powerful tool for expression.
This keynote highlights the health benefits of drumming, such as stress relief, improved mental well-being, physical exercise, and enhanced energy levels.
Discovering Your Purpose
For years, Josh followed society’s conventional expectations of adulthood, only to realize he was living without a true sense of purpose. A transformative trip to Cuba changed his path, and now, two decades later, he’s fully aligned with his passion.
This keynote helps individuals connect with their inner drive and uncover their own purpose in life.
