As an author, speaker and entrepreneur, I help people learn how to take “nearly” complete control over their most important decisions in health, career and business.
Whether conference, business, corporation or college I’d welcome the opportunity to see how we could work together for your next event.
A Little Bit About Me
As an entrepreneur, I’m the creator of the best-selling board game “MindTrap®” and more than 20 other products and games that have sold millions of copies worldwide.
Over the years, I’ve enjoyed great success and colossal failure. It’s through my failures and subsequent recoveries in business and in health that I learned how we can virtually choose success by understanding how the human mind really works. Spoiler Alert —it doesn’t work the way we think it does!
With this simple understanding we can learn to make any critical decision with certainty… that means knowing it’s a “good” decision before we see the outcome.
As an experienced speaker, I will ensure …
A great experience on stage. I’ve presented to audiences in various settings and contexts. As a presenter, I use stories, examples, and handouts to not only make a point but also keep your audience engaged and listening. They will leave with practical, applicable next steps to take with them.
A great experience off stage – I know that choosing a speaker can be a stressful task… because of all the unknowns. As a speaker I strive to eliminate any surprises to ensure the presentation is well received not only by the audience but by the planner as well.
Speaking Topics
I speak about decision-making in health, business, career and family. Life is all about choices, control is when you make them – a simple skill that any of us can learn.
I would love to speak with you to learn more about your organization or event and how we can best work together.

EDITORIAL REVIEWS
OBESITY … it’s NOT what YOU THINK it is!
While Big Food’s dastardly tactics have, of course, been well covered elsewhere, the author offers an engaging, eye-opening tour through suspicious or misleading propaganda and scientifically valid findings. Best of all, his book provides support and vision regarding the “surprisingly simple way” that Fast himself lost 30 pounds and regained vitality and health.
Fast can hardly ignore the matter of food and its effects. In fact, he opens his chock-full-of-info book with the line, “Our relationship with food is broken. Consequently, so is our health.” And that’s the essence of this most unique work, in its engaging tone, mountains of advice, and observations about how savvy marketing and an avalanche of media misinformation have led us astray. Some powerful food for thought.
In this straightforward, eye-opening guide to eating healthy, Fast offers an informative and honest exploration of rising obesity rates—and what can be done about it.” The cure for obesity is not to focus on weight; it’s to focus on health,” A no-holds-barred look into the rising obesity rates and ways to get healthy.
Fast does something unique compared to a lot of books in this area: he analyzes every stage of the process with a lot of care. This is very important because a lot of books only focus on the solution while this author creates a lot of context, which can help a lot of people to understand their current state of affairs. The solutions are interesting and simple. This is a very interesting book because is not developed in the traditional sense, offering multiple insights that conventional weight loss books don’t do. A very good book and one that, hopefully, gets the attention it deserves because it has a lot to offer to the general public.
OBESITY … it’s NOT what YOU THINK it is! is a fascinating and highly informative look at how to get healthy and stay that way by making wise choices about what we eat and why we eat it. It also explores how we got ourselves into an obesity predicament and more importantly, how we can get out.
Although the author has no medical credentials, intense research cited in the text, plus practical knowledge and first-hand applications, convinced him that worldwide obesity is a result of typical Western-style diets. Writing with a thriller’s “what happens next” flair, Fast pulls in the reader, starting with the first packaged breakfast cereals, which replaced the eggs/bacon/porridge of decades ago. Attractively illustrated and clearly expressed, the author builds to an indictment of processed foods and the Big Food industry. Avoiding a dry recitation of medical studies, Fast makes his point with easy-to-understand research and anecdotes.
