Navigating a Two-Handed World...Single-handedly

Workshops

David Harrell’s work doesn’t stop at the keynote. For schools that want to go deeper and communities that want to bring the whole family into the conversation, David offers two additional programs that extend his message beyond the student assembly.

These programs are built around the same true story and The Three A’s framework, adapted for the specific audience: the educators who show up every day for their students, and the families who are raising them.

📌 Both programs can be added to an existing school assembly or keynote booking
for a complete full-day experience.

Professional Development for Educators & Staff

This workshop uses David’s story and The Three A’s framework to give educators a shared language for resilience they can bring into their classrooms and carry into their own lives. It is honest, practical, and built for the people who show up every day for other people’s children.
