Why book speaker Billy Price?
Billy used his circumstances and applied it to a great cause. Using his degree in mechanical engineering and his understanding of his disability quadriplegia, he combined both to create BILLY FOOTWEAR.
He rises above his circumstances. Being paralyzed at the young age of 18, Billy could have easily succumbed to his condition. Billy will provide insightful positivity while inviting opportunities for resistance.
He provides positive reinforcement. Speaker Billy Price can help influence any organization or team to win through fear. He created a system of healthy thoughts to be used in the most crucial times.
“I encourage you that when you are met with resistance, continue leaning in and opportunities will come your way” - Speaker Billy Price
Born and raised in Issaquah, Washington, Speaker Billy Price grew up very active in sports. On October 9, 1996, Billy fell from a three-story window, broke multiple vertebrates and damaged his spinal cord causing permanent paralysis. The medical diagnosis? Quadriplegia and the world that Billy was accustomed to, a world filled with fierce independence, was gone. Billy spent the next five months of his life at the University of Washington Medical Center piecing his life back together both physically and mentally. Forced to grapple with either success or sorrow, Billy opted to focus on what he still had instead of letting the thought of what he lost consume him.
With that mindset, Billy improved, not in the sense of reversing paralysis, but in building confidence and gaining strength in what he had. Following his rehabilitation, Billy returned to college and finished his mechanical engineering degree. He relearned how to drive. He took the ski slopes back as a sit skier. He landed a job with the Federal Aviation Administration. He bought a condominium and started living on his own until he got married.
Somewhere along the way he connected with his longtime friend Darin Donaldson and started a shoe company BILLY FOOTWEAR. This footwear was intended to make a difference in this world, and with this concept, BILLY footwear continues to grow and impact lives.
Speaker Billy Price says life is a journey, enjoy it! Embrace and receive what life has to offer. Find strength in the storms. Be a person of action. Build on what you have. Hold on to hope. Have courage. Move forward. We all have a story. We cannot go back and rewrite how our story begins. But we can change how our story ends. It all comes down to choice. The choice to change can be made today.
