How to find yourself in a life of service | Daniel Wilsher | TEDxBrighton
In this heartfelt talk, Danny shares his journey of learning how to find yourself through a life of service.After losing his dad at a young age, Danny’s path was anything but straightforward. He experienced both success and struggle — in school, in business, and in his personal life. But it wasn’t until he began to understand the true meaning of service that things began to change.Through helping others, he found clarity. Through giving back, he found purpose. And through service, he found himself.Danny’s story is an honest reflection on grief, growth and the long road to peace. It’s a reminder that fulfilment often comes not from chasing success, but from showing up for others — and in doing so, showing up for yourself. Award-winning public speaker, finalist of Channel4's hit show 'The Piano', Founder of LivEdX Learning, Founder of Damaged Goods Co., and Co-Founder of Orb. Drinks.
