Dean discovered his purpose standing on a log, suspended 40 feet above the earth, sobbing like a baby. Truth is heights paralyze him. He was determined to conquer that fear. He was determined to prove to himself that he could overcome any challenge, even one that paralyzed him like that.
It seems crazy that conquering that paralyzing fear set him on his path of purpose. Having battled life demons like leukemia, losing his mother to cancer, sexual abuse, and watching his father beat alcoholism weren’t enough to overcome already.
Those life lessons help shape the character of a man committed to helping others. His story inspires, motivates and changes lives of those he meets.
Dean emceed our hockey fundraiser this year and did a fantastic job. He was funny, entertaining, and meshed well with a room full of people. He is a natural and will enhance any event that he is a part of.
I cannot say enough about Dean. He came from De Pere to Appleton in a snow storm (Blizzard) in January for my North East Wisconsin Wedding Professional group. There was only 3 of us other than Dean that showed up and he did his presentation accordingly. He was gracious enough to do the event and reschedule for the next month to reach a larger group. Greatly appreciated by our group and was a wonderful presenter and speaker.
Response from Dean Raasch:
Joan thank you for the review. I was happy to drive down in the blizzard to speak to your group. Thank you for asking me to come back at on another date, when the weather was better, so I could meet the whole group. I had a great time meeting each of them and learning about their businesses and their stories. Thank you again.
