Dr Tommy Watson's story reads like a Hollywood movie. He grew up in the crime-ridden part of Denver, Colorado. By the time he graduated high school his parents had been arrested 121 times. His mother alone was arrested 11 times before he turned 1! In his story he talks about moving homes countless times, sharing a motel room with 9 other people and watching his parents shooting drugs. Despite this extremely challenging childhood he won a basketball scholarship and went on to graduate with a Doctorate in Education, becoming a school principal.
Dr Tommy is now an entrepreneur, a life coach, motivational speaker, and published author. Listen to him sharing the intimate details of his life and how he rose to be called Dr Inspiration, known as America's "Thought leader on turning obstacles into advantages".
