Author Michael H. Forde has had a significant amount of success for a 25-year-old. As a recipient of the fully funded Gates Millennium scholarship by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Forde is an ambassador for the National College Resources Foundation, team member of Forbes The Culture, and author of the book Success Begins From Where You Are! Featured in Forbes India for his positive impact on society, and having more than 100,000 combined followers on Instagram and Facebook, Forde has been an inspiration to many near and far, showing that success really does begin from where you are.

Michael, who was born in Brooklyn, New York City, began his search for success at a very early age. Raised by his Caribbean parents, Forde saw how hard they worked and the sacrifices they made to make sure that he was always taken care of. The type of drive displayed by his family to invest in the wellbeing of others soon became part of his purpose to have the most positive impact on society as humanly possible.

“My purpose was not always clear”, said Forde. “I was not sure of my “why”. However, through finding my purpose of giving, I have found my answer to success. I truly believe that there is beauty in investing in others, and that’s what I feel as if I was meant to do.”

Forde’s writings have been seen by thousands across the world, as his goal is to ensure that people have the tools needed to guide them towards the finish line. His purpose, he says, is to inspire all to fulfill the greatness that is already inside of them.

“Having the opportunity to spread information that can help someone achieve more in life has always been a dream of mine, and I’m really happy to be able to do just that”, said Forde. “I believe that the more inspired people are, the more they can realize that their potential is limitless. This, in turn, can create a cycle of people helping other people, just as I hope to do for as long as I possibly can.”

In the bustling world of motivational speaking, where voices rise and inspire, one individual stands out: Derik Fay.  Not just for his powerful messages, but for the remarkable journey that has placed him alongside some of the world’s most influential figures. 

I recently had the opportunity to sit down with Derik Fay to delve into his experiences sharing stages with icons like Tony Robbins, Tim Grover, and a constellation of A list celebrity names.

“It’s been a surreal experience,” Fay began, a hint of awe still present in his voice. “To stand next to icons who have inspired millions, to witness their command of an audience, it’s a masterclass in itself. 

Fay’s journey, as he describes it, is a blend of hard work, delusional confidence, genuine passion, and a relentless pursuit of connection. 

“It’s not just about the name on the marquee,” he emphasized. “It’s about the shared energy, and the exchange of ideas. Whether it’s Kevin Hart’s comedic genius or Alex Rodriguez’s athletic drive, there’s something to learn from everyone I share the stage with.”

What struck me most during our conversation was Fay’s emphasis on authenticity. “I try to bring the same realness to the stage that I do in my online content,” he explained, referencing his popular Instagram reels and YouTube shorts. 

“People connect with genuine emotion, with relatable stories. It’s about building a bridge, not just delivering a lecture.”

Fays direct, conversational style, which I’ve observed in his online content, and in our interview clearly translates to his live performances. “I’ve learned that vulnerability is a strength,” he shared. “Whether I’m talking about the challenges of fatherhood or the importance of emotional intelligence, I want people to walk away feeling seen and understood.”

Beyond the star-studded appearances, Fay sees his speaking engagements as a platform for positive change. “It’s about sharing insights that can make a real difference,” he told me. 

“Whether it’s inspiring entrepreneurs to chase their dreams or helping individuals navigate difficult relationships, I want to leave a lasting impact.”

The lessons learned from sharing stages with these giants has undoubtedly shaped Fay’s approach. “I’ve absorbed so much from watching these masters at work,” he reflected. “It’s not just about the techniques, it’s about the passion, the commitment, the unwavering belief in the power of communication.”

As Derik Fay continues to grace stages around the globe, one thing is clear: his journey is a testament to the power of authentic connection and the enduring influence of shared experiences. And with each event, the legacy of these moments continues to grow, leaving an indelible mark on both the speaker and the audience.
