Who I am

I am a generalist. In the fact that I generally believe everything is achievable and fascinating. I am a retired combat Infantry veteran who served over four years in Afghanistan and Iraq. I am a cancer parent to my son Beydn who passed in 2014 from T-Cell ALL. I am a cancer spouse; my wife proves to me every day that she is by far the strongest person I know as she fights Stage 4 breast cancer. I love to run far and am an avid ultra endurance athlete, a reader and financial counselor. I can speak in depth on a variety of topics to include overcoming personal adversity, leadership, team building, long distance running and day to day finacial planning and budgeting. Let’s get better together.

No one embodies perseverance and a ‘no quit’ attitude like Joshua Swink. The obstacles he has over come and experiences he’s had make him a compelling speaker and a joy to learn from. Highly recommend.

Mr. Swink brings his knowledge about leadership and lessons learned through humor and compassion. His message has purpose and is to the point.
Mary Rocks
Joshua Swink is a skilled and captivating speaker well able to grab and hold the attention of his audience as well as being an excellent educator. One of the main character traits that makes him such an engaging speaker is his intense passion to pass along his hard earned knowledge and significant life experiences. Joshua Swink is a very open person and is easy to talk to. It's been said that he can talk to just about anyone, even if they don't exist (there's a funny picture of him talking to no one in a field during an ROTC medical helicopter lab). When I was in Joshua's Military History class he always tried to make learning fun and definitely went to extraordinary lengths to build that into every lesson. In one class, his lesson centered around a custom-made board game for the Second Battle of the Marne (WW1) which had obviously taken an incredible amount of time and effort to design and produce. Joshua Swink is a wonderful speaker and one of my favorite teachers.
