I have heard Julian speak of his journey and the lessons learned on a number of occasions. He speaks from deep within his soul and in a way that both inspires and draws empathy. He has been blessed with the talent to think deeply and articulate in clear and compassionate ways. His message is one of courage, of personal growth, and of a journey that has had the highs and lows that are so typical of life today.
