Your Journey As A Man - Interview With Jody Dyess Part 2

We continue our interview with Jody Dyess and hear some of his practical takeaways on his journey as a man.

It's a fascinating interview showing how the journey is a big part of what makes us the men we are today. It also fuels us to keep exploring and living our adventures.

Traveling throughout the U.S., Jody has presented to thousands of high school and middle school students, challenging and motivating them to speak up and say something against bullying and exploitation. He has done this through innovative and powerful school assemblies designed to equip students to stand up and say something about the issues that threaten their futures.

Jody has been in the fight against human trafficking for many years. He works with FREE International, an organization that fights human trafficking in the U.S., and has trained over a thousand law enforcement and first responders on how to recognize and respond to the signs of labor and sex trafficking. In 2017, he was appointed to the Mississippi Human Trafficking Task Force and has been the keynote speaker for various government and advocacy groups on the issue of trafficking.

Jody communicates out of his own experiences and life lessons, some of them not so glamorous. It is his real-life approach that makes him a sought-after communicator to both students and adults.
