At the Podium with Patrick Huey
"At the Podium with Patrick Huey" is a multimedia platform (podcast, video podcast and newsletter) where we learn from people who come from different walks of life, careers, and experiences but all share one thing in common—they have stepped fully into the transformative power of saying “Yes” to the unexpected turns of their lives. And they are now using the power of their voice (or podium) to make an impact on the world we live in today. "At The Podium" is the intersection of art, culture, and big thoughts wrapped up in good old-fashioned conversation.

Derrick Young Jr.: Don’t Let the Chaos and Noise of Today Steal Your Joy.
Derrick Young Jr. is a modern-day wellness warrior, advocate and pioneer committed to living a life of unrestrained excellence and impact. He emodies the principles of courage, citizenship and action that Theodore Roosevelt speaks about in his "Man in the Arena" statement. As the Founder and Executive Director of Leadership Brainery, Derrick and his team are creating pathways to Master’s and Doctoral programs for underrepresented communities – making what once seemed impossible, possible for thousands of college graduates. And with his newest venture, Forever Young Spa — an urban luxury wellness destination in Boston — he’s redefining whom the wellness industry speaks to and whom it serves.
In our conversation today we discuss how his own health struggles, his faith in God and his optimism fuel Derek’s ongoing fight for a better tomorrow. And how he has not allowed the chaos and noise of the present moment, to steal his joy.
