Welcome to "MakingAMarc": Join Me on a Journey of Triumph and Meaning
Life, Lessons, and Community
Hello and welcome!
I'm Marc Convey, a burns survivor, globetrotter, and motivational speaker. I’m both excited and a bit nervous to invite you to join me on this new adventure. Together, we'll explore my stories, the lessons I've learned, and much more. With your support and feedback, I hope to shape how best to go about this - a book eventually?
A Little About Me
At 14, I faced a life-altering event that left me with severe burns. The road to recovery was long and challenging, but it taught me resilience and the power of a positive mindset. My journey didn't stop there; I've traveled the world, worked as an international poker commentator, and built my own businesses. Each experience has been a unique chapter in my life, filled with lessons and growth.
Why "MakingAMarc"?
I love speaking to audiences and participating in podcasts, but I've realised these platforms only allow me to scratch the surface. I have a sense of purpose to share more deeply so I can continue to grow personally and inspire others to grow from their own lived experiences.
Through "MakingAMarc," I aim to share the stories and insights I've gathered over the years. From the highs of global adventures to the lows of personal struggles, my goal is to inspire and connect with you through these narratives. More importantly, I want to build a community—a group of beta readers and stakeholders who can provide feedback, support, and share their own stories.
A Collaborative Journey
Writing a book is often a solitary endeavour, but I believe in the power of community. Instead of taking the traditional, isolated path, I want to bring you along for the ride. Your insights, feedback, and engagement will be invaluable as we navigate this journey together.
What to Expect
In this newsletter, I'll be sharing:
Personal stories from my trauma recovery, travels, the world of poker, and the amazing people I’ve connected with along the way.
Lessons learned and insights gained from these experiences.
Accompanying Audio Posts: Hear the emotions and nuances in my voice as I recount my experiences and provide deeper insights into specific stories and topics. Enjoy expanded reflections and interviews with inspiring individuals for a richer, more engaging connection with the content.
Updates on my speaking career, travels, and opportunities for you to contribute.
