    Decency, Goodness, and Love with David Stanley

    I loved this conversation with David Stanley because he breaks love down to the very simple idea of being good and decent. When you look at love in those simple forms you can apply it to business, friendships, life, science, and everything else. This is what David does and that makes for a great conversation. Bio David L. Stanley, B.Sc, M.A., is a teacher, poet and author, voice-over actor, and speaker. His work has appeared in national magazines on topics from professional bicycle racing to men, depression, and suicide. His first book, Melanoma, It Started with a Freckle was hailed by Prof. Tom Foster of How to Read Novels Like a Professor as “harrowing, insightful, technical, and hilarious.” Stanley’s second book, co-authored with Willie Artis is From Jim Crow to CEO, the Willie Artis Story, available via AUX Media. His latest book is Rants & Mutters, an essay collection. In addition, you can read his poetry on his Medium page. Much of his prose is found on his personal blog, Rants & Mutters, and his Vocal.Media page. David Stanley has read his sonnets to audiences at the Dad 2.0 Summit; North America’s largest gathering of dads and brands. His poetry has been featured in blogs and literary magazines. He is the narrator of 40 audiobooks on subjects ranging from Alzheimer’s, bicycle racing, the NBA, to mountaineering.  Stanley travels to speak on melanoma awareness, fatherhood and life, and The Art of the Pitch.
