In this powerful conversation, host Brian Williams sits down with Duncan Kirkwood the Director of the Center for Resiliency at Villa Maria College. Duncan shares his journey from serving as a Master Resilience Trainer in the Army National Guard to becoming a nationally recognized speaker who empowers educators and students across the country.
The discussion tackles the sobering reality that in 2012, more soldiers died by suicide than in combat, sparking Duncan's mission to teach mental toughness beyond the military. Duncan brings a military-tested resilience framework to schools, offering educators a powerful reframe: teachers are first responders whose work saves lives.
"Goodbye Yesterday" by Elevation Rhythm ft. Gracie Binion - Duncan's personal hype song, a Christian rock/gospel anthem about living in the light of a new day. Released May 2024 from the album Victory Lap.
