What happens when your life is shaped by adversity long before success ever shows up?
In this powerful episode of The School of Influence, Devin Schubert sits down with inspirational speaker Dwayne Morton, a man whose story proves that resilience builds real influence. From years of being overlooked in basketball, to living 18 years with a misdiagnosed blood disease, to surviving a police shooting by inches, Dwayne’s journey is raw, real, and deeply transformational.
This conversation goes beyond motivation. It dives into mindset, gratitude, faith, and what it truly means to show up with intention even when life feels unfair. Dwayne shares how his greatest challenges forged his character, sharpened his perspective, and ultimately prepared him to lead, speak, and serve at a higher level.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, overlooked, or questioned why your story looks the way it does, this episode will remind you that your scars are not setbacks. They are proof of preparation.
Your influence is not built when life is easy. It’s built by how you show up when it’s hard.
