LET’S WORK TOGETHER
Speaking &
Workshops
Every day, I teach my students at Duke University and share lessons with hundreds of thousands of people around the world who follow my work online. My focus is simple: using failure as a tool for learning, creativity, and growth. I’d love to bring that same energy to your stage — tailoring my message to your audience and your organization so it’s not just another talk, but an experience people remember, talk about, and put into action.
Watch My TED Talk on How Being an Entrepreneur Saved My Life.
I was a successful tech entrepreneur chasing the dream of building a billion-dollar company… until everything stopped. Suddenly, my biggest challenge wasn’t scaling a startup — it was getting out of bed in the morning without dying.
“ Aaron has a gift for connecting with audiences and turning life’s hardest challenges into lessons.
His ability to connect personal experience with universal truths makes his work not only inspiring but deeply practical. He reminds us that resilience isn’t about perfection, it’s about curiosity, courage, and showing up for ourselves and others with honesty. I’m grateful for the way he helps people think differently about what’s possible.
