Motivation Mar 25, 2025

A Spark of Inspiration Arrives

In what promises to be an unforgettable experience, motivational speaker and resilience coach Dee Hankins is bringing his unique blend of humor and insight to Trinity. Known for his storytelling prowess and self-described as a “Wal-mart version of Kevin Hart,” Hankins is set to inspire students to find resilience in adversity.

From Adversity to Inspiration

Hankins’ journey from foster care to a fulfilling life is a testament to overcoming challenges. Entering the foster system at just two months old and experiencing life in twelve different homes by the age of eight, Hankins found solace and stability in education. This pivotal transformation led him to become an advocate for resilience and personal empowerment.

Three Days of Motivation and Community Connection

The three-day event, starting on Monday, March 31st, will feature immersive sessions with both students and staff at Trinity. Through both large and small group activities, Hankins will share strategies to embrace resilience, not only on a personal level but also within teams and organizations. These experiences aim to instill hope and drive a shift in perspective.

Community Night – A Gathering of Spirits

To cap off the motivational journey, a Community Night at Trinity High School’s Gymnasium promises an evening of high energy and inspiration, featuring the vivacious collaboration of Hankins and DJ Johnson, a well-regarded school counselor. The event opens its doors at 5:30 pm with provisions for up to 250 guests, including local community members, educational partners, leaders, students, and parents. It’s an opportunity not just for learning but for building communal strength.

Engaging Hearts and Minds

This event encourages the Trinity community to embrace their challenging stories and transform them into pathways for growth. Dee Hankins stands as a beacon of positivity, and as stated in Redheaded Blackbelt, his sessions are expected to be impactful, offering clarity, laughter, and empowerment for all attendees.
