Darryll Stinson
Speaker.
Entrepreneur.
Pastor.
Suicide Survivor.
I'm an entrepreneur, pastor, speaker, and, most importantly, a suicide survivor. I played defensive end at Central Michigan University from 2008-2011. I attempted to take my life in 2011 due to a severe career-ending back injury. Through a life-changing experience at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, MI, I got a second chance and came to believe that my life mattered. I began the arduous journey of discovering what was my purpose in life.
After five years of research, meditation, workshops, and cross-examination, I found my highest (unique) purpose, and built a life I love waking up to experience each day. I became passionate about helping others, specifically purpose-driven leaders and entrepreneurs change the world by finding their highest purpose and building thriving careers and businesses.
I'm the founder of SecondChanceAthletes.com, a holistic athletic transition service for current, former, and forgotten athletes.
My passion is speaking to audiences to share a message to hope, life, motivation, and purpose beyond what we can think or see.
You’ll see my core beliefs and info about my amazing family below.
Thank you for taking time to visit my site. I know you’re reading this for a reason, and I can’t wait to discover what that reason is.
My Family
Husband.
Father.
Family Man.
There are four ladies and a little man in my life who I absolutely adore and cherish. When it comes to meaning in my life, when it comes to purpose and fulfillment in my life, they are at the core of it all.
I'm happily married to my rockstar wife, Brittany. We have three amazing little daughters — Ava, Ari, and Amaya. And our brand new addition, my son, Isaiah.
My family fuels me to be the best me I can be. I desire to be the best husband, father, and man possible.
My Core Beliefs
I believe that the abundant life is available to ALL of us.
I believe there’s more than enough love, joy, peace, happiness, food, clothes, money, land - you name it. No one should have to live in lack if they don’t want to.
I love people. People of all colors, ages, and beliefs.
I believe we all have a purpose that is just as unique as our fingerprint, and that when we discover our highest purpose and live it out, we make a greater impact in the lives of those we are called to serve, and that is how the world becomes a better place.
As a former Division 1 athlete, a marketing expert, a pastor and a suicide survivor, I want to change as many lives as possible by sharing everything I know and giving everything I have.
My faith and my family are my highest priorities, and the world gets all that’s left.
I believe that if we’re meant to work together, we will, and you’ll be bold enough to take the next step. And when you do… I’ll serve you with all that I am.
