LEAD WITH COURAGE

Darryl leverages his vast collection of fears to teach students how to embrace discomfort as they lead.

MORE THAN A "KEYNOTE SPEECH" IT'S A TRANSFORMATIONAL EXPERIENCE

Being a student is challenging enough, but when you factor in the added pressure of stepping up, challenging the status quo, and facing possible rejection, it's clear that student leaders have their work cut out for them.

As a guide, I empower your leaders to embrace discomfort and fully embody their authentic selves, enabling them to create a lasting legacy that aligns with their goals and values.

I fear I'll run for a leadership position, lose, and then be embarrassed.

I fear I'll never be as good as those around me, which stops me from even trying in the first place.

I fear that I'll never reach the level of success I desire in order to leave a legacy for family.

I fear I’m not good enough compared to my peers

I fear my mental health struggles will hold me back from being the leader I want to be.

I fear that I'll be overwhelmed academically if I step up and that will make it not worth it in the end.

Hey, I'm Darryl!

Involved student turned fearful movement leader

Darryl Bellamy Jr.
darryl bellamy jr florida youth speaker
As someone who has served as an orientation counselor, fraternity leader, workshop facilitator, SGA member, and RA, I know firsthand the pressures and obstacles your students face.

Drawing on my own experiences, I guide students in developing practical strategies to help them thrive, whether it's in an intimate workshop or a large conference setting.

I pride myself on being highly engaging, yet practical - inspiring students while also motivating them to take action long after I've left their campus or event.

I'm passionate about empowering your students to become their best selves, and I can't wait to help your community achieve their goals and create a lasting impact.

REAL RESULTS

After Darryl’s Fearless message, one of my student-athletes decided to pursue her own make-up business and to step outside of her comfort zone. She was a struggling Biology major until he made something click for her, and she is forever grateful! I cannot wait to have him back in the near future.

MORE COMFORTABLE

Darryl has a way about him that allows the students to be comfortable and step outside of their comfort zone. After the event students were more engaged in our conference and were interested in how an in-person event would be with him since our conference was virtual. Darryl giving the keynote at our event created a space where I can engage more with my students afterward.

Ball State University has had Darryl Bellamy come to campus five or more times and there is always a resounding excitement from students each time.

ENGAGED

This was the fourth event in which Darryl served as a keynote speaker (two in-person and two virtual). He was a thrilling in-person speaker, and we were absolutely floored at his ability to engage participants virtually as well…Darryl continues to evolve his delivery each time, making the most of in-person and online events.

Real fearless stories from college students:

Student Fearlessly Sings National Anthem

You spoke at a leadership conference at Eastern Connecticut State University the other day. I have always had a passion for singing and I was a member of drama club throughout high school and I've had a solo here and there, but i have never had the guts to do anything more than that. But your talk pushed me to sign up to sing the national anthem and one of my colleges baseball games and im sooooo excited. Just wanted to say thank you!

Student Finds Hope in Failure

Last week I learned a lot, and it helped me get the courage to run for Academic Chair of my fraternity and give a speech in front of everyone. It was not easy getting up there, and I ended up losing by two votes. Reminded me of your situation and I was able to keep a positive attitude afterward."

Student Applies for Lead at Job!

I decided to apply for the lead position at my work. I never did before because I was new and thought I wasn’t going to be qualified enough or that I didn’t meet the expectations since I always ask for help. However, I know myself, and I know I can learn quickly and I should take the shot anyways.

Interview Jitters

Today I had my first interview for a placement that would define my last year of college. It was an opportunity that meant the world to me but I feared I wasn’t good enough and this opportunity would ultimately end in failure. I put my fearless band on because I thought it would change my outlook on things. It did just that. I often sell myself short but the band reminded me of all the people that stand with me and have given me the tools to seize such opportunities.
