“Dustin’s energy is not only contagious, but truly inspirational! His authenticity and passion with which he spoke resonated so deeply with us. I even went home and did Dustin’s communication exercise with my oldest daughter! She loved it and it sparked so much great conversation about out of the box thinking and how there are so many ways of communicating. Even though she is only 7 years old, you could see new perspectives and thoughts being unlocked. She connected our conversation to the adversity my youngest daughter faced when she was non verbal for 3 years and how we used multiple communication channels to make connections with her. ❤️”
