💡 In This Episode
Dr. Will Moreland, president of Moreland Training & Associates, shares his extraordinary journey from a troubled youth in Compton, California to becoming an Army veteran, global speaker, and author of over 50 books on personal development. Dr. Moreland reflects on the critical turning point when a judge gave him a second chance — one that led him to enlist in the military and change the course of his life. He dives into the role mentorship, vision, and discipline played in shaping his future, and why civility — intentionally treating others with respect — is key to reducing conflict and building stronger communities.
