Presentation 1
An Unexpected Detour
Suitable for corporations and general audiences
All of us will encounter detours and adversities in our lives. It is how we respond that determines the quality and direction of our life going forward. Dale shares with his audiences what he has learned from his journey. One which has detoured him from his profession as a successful Senior Vice President of investments at a major financial firm, to a new path in life.He was left with deficits from his battle with a deadly form of bacterial meningitis, resulting in his ensuing disabilities.
Dale’s experience has taught him that in order to overcome unexpected detours and still live a productive, happy life, we must accomplish three things. These three principles have allowed him to continue living his life in a fulfilling way, even though it is far different from his prior one. He chose optimism and hope, and accepted the new path he was given. Out of tragedy came a more balanced, meaningful life.
With Dale’s passionate storytelling, these three concepts empower people to face and overcome the unexpected detours and hardships in their lives. His message is one of courage and inspiration for all.

When the pain and illness became too much to bear, God placed me in his loving embrace. I would experience a detour that would change my life forever.

Presentation 3
Disability Detour
Designed for companies and individuals involved in the disability industry
In the prime of his career as a Senior Vice President of Investments with Morgan Stanley, Dale was forced to have unexpected brain surgery. That surgery resulted in the ensuing contraction of a deadly form of bacterial meningitis and septic shock. After a near death experience, Dale was left with numerous disabilities.
In this presentation, Dale discusses his passion and belief as to the need for disability protection. Left with deficits from his battle, he was forced to leave his profession in the financial industry. He tells his story of recovery and perseverance, mentally, physically and financially, and the years long struggle he endured to rebuild his life. By sharing his journey he conveys the message of how having disability insurance allowed him to focus on returning to a normal life.
The financial payments from my disability policies allowed me to focus on my mental and physical recovery which took years. I couldn’t imagine what my family and I would’ve done without disability insurance.
Dale is living proof as to the importance of protecting one’s life financially against the potential for unanticipated detours.
