The Faces Behind Our Freedom.

This is personal. After serving in the Army and Navy, I wanted a place where families could tell us about the people behind the uniforms—the ordinary moments, the humor, the love, and the lives worth remembering.

THE DIFFERENCE IS WHAT HAPPENS AFTER

Standing ovations
are nice.
Changed conversations
are better.

Joshua doesn't bring audiences another collection of polished talking points. He brings the stories, humor, discomfort, and hope that make people look at their work—and themselves—a little differently.

THE HUMAN BEHIND THE MICROPHONE

Not a borrowed
leadership story.

I don't speak about rebuilding because I found a clever metaphor for it. I've had to do it. What matters most to me is helping people recognize themselves in the stories and discover what they're willing to change.

I'm a father of five and a former theatre major, so storytelling and a little well-timed humor come pretty naturally. My kids have also taught me that taking responsibility seriously and taking yourself seriously are two very different things.
