Uncomfortable Peace Stepping Outside My Comfort Zone to Naturally Beat Type 2 Diabetes
SESSION INFO
Monday, February 13, 2023
1:30 PM - 2:30 PM
Session Type: Workshop
According to the World Health Organization, diabetes is the cause of death for 1.5 million people a year. Type 2 diabetes is a self-inflicted illness that has altered and/or destroyed the lives of those with it and their loved ones. I refused to live with this chronic illness for the rest of my life in agony nor was I going to take any prescribed medication to get rid of it. Through research, guidance and with the assistance of family and friends, I placed myself on a very specific routine that allowed me to enjoy my life everyday, fight the mental challenges of food addiction and heal my body naturally. After getting my A1C level down 10 points, losing as much as 50 pounds and reducing my blood glucose level by roughly 400 points, I am excited to share what I did in detail to reverse this chronic illness FROM THE COMFORT OF MY HOME that over 30 MILLION Americans are plagued with.

SESSION PRESENTERS
Vernon P. Davis, Jr
Impact Speaker & Author,
Meet Vernon Davis, a former soda enthusiast who fully embraced His weakness for pizza and icing. For many years Vernon struggled with low self-esteem and found His identity and comfort in food and sugary drinks. After receiving a diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes, He began His journey of healing naturally, through lifestyle modifications. During the challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic AND a new baby, Vernon lost 50 pounds and reversed this chronic illness, with no medication. Subsequently Vernon also improved in His self-awareness and stress management skills. He is a graduate of Grambling State University and obtained a Master’s Degree in Organizational Leadership from South University. Vernon embodies transformational leadership qualities, which coupled with His experience, led Him to writing a book titled "Uncomfortable Peace" which is available on Amazon. Now, as an Impact Speaker, Vernon is dedicated to not only sharing His journey with others but also teaching the principals He applied to improve His life physically, emotionally, professionally and socially. Vernon travels the country speaking on the topics of “Emotional Intelligence,” “Achieving Success,” “Overcoming Obstacles," "Being Healthy on a Budget" and “Surviving Setbacks”. He is inspired to share His story to help others push past all limits in route to their desired outcomes.
