Master storyteller Guy Doud shares what it's like to grow up with all the inadequacies that cripple a child emotionally - obesity, an alcoholic mother, financial hardship and even being the last one to be chosen for kickball.

As an adult, he's overcome his upbringing to receive the national Teacher of the Year award and now spends his time sharing with audiences around the country about the impact one person can have in affecting another person's life to mold their hopes - their dreams.
