Aaron Golub’s presentation at Disability: IN Minnesota’s annual celebration for International Day of Persons with Disabilities was inspiring and impactful. His story of resilience and inclusion motivated us all to embrace challenges and foster a more inclusive world. A few key messages included ‘It creates an awkward situation when we assume, not when we ask’ and ‘Asking for help is a strength, not a weakness.’ We are incredibly grateful for Aaron’s contribution to our celebration and powerful message.

Having Aaron on campus was an amazing and transformative experience for our student-athletes. The feedback we received from student-athletes who attended was among the best. I have ever received for a campus speaker in my career. Aaron’s presentation is engaging and interactive,and his story of perseverance and overcoming adversity was extremely important for our student-athletes to hear. How Aaron interweaves the topics of leadership and inclusivity make his presentation even more powertul and impactful. We are looking forward to having Aaron on campus again in the future, and I highly recommend to any athletic department or organization that they consider bringing in Aaron in to speak

"I have been in education for a long time, and I would say Aaron Golub's talk to our student body was one of the most uplifting and motivational speeches I have heard in my career. The faculty and students had the same sentiment. The standing ovation our students gave Aaron was heartfelt, as they were inspired by Aaron's call to persevere."
American Concrete Pavement Association
The American Concrete Pavement Association was excited to welcome Aaron as the keynote speaker for our 62nd Annual Meeting. From a logistical perspective, Aaron and his team are easy to work with and are particularly concerned with understanding your audience and presentation goals. Beyond that, Aaron’s keynote presentation offers a unique perspective on tackling challenges. While people often struggle with challenges that seem impossible to overcome, it was inspiring to see how someone with a daily challenge was able to persevere and achieve incredible success. The interactive piece of the presentation really puts the challenge of visual impairment into perspective and offers an important life lesson about asking for help, offering help, and working together as a team to achieve success.

We were thrilled to have Aaron speak at our all-company event, the “Wellness Wave.” Aaron’s story of perseverance, grit, and overcoming adversity deeply resonated with our team. His ability to connect through humor, authenticity, and vulnerability made his keynote not only incredibly inspiring, but also highly engaging and memorable.What stood out most was how thoughtfully Aaron tailored his message to reflect our business goals and the realities of being a scrappy, fast-moving startup. His themes of grit, resilience, and finding another way when faced with obstacles were perfectly aligned with the mindset we’re working to build across our team.He was a true professional, a passionate speaker, and someone we’d absolutely recommend to any company looking to energize and inspire their people.

Today, we had the privilege of welcoming Aaron Golub to the YCDS campus. Aaron shared his truly inspirational story, one that challenges us to rethink our limitations and focus on what’s possible when we lead with purpose, collaborate with intention, and communicate with clarity. His journey reminded us that leadership isn’t about titles, but about influence; collaboration is about valuing every voice; and communication is the bridge that makes both possible. We are grateful for the lessons, the motivation, and the reminder that resilience and determination can open doors we never imagined. Thank you, Aaron, for inspiring our community today!
I am still receiving rave reviews of your presentation. The teachers ABSOLUTELY loved your visit.
