Danny Coleman Jr.

Danny Coleman Jr. is a transformational keynote speaker, author, and mental health advocate whose life proves that your setback is a setup for a comeback. After surviving a decade-long battle with food addiction, pornography addiction, morbid obesity, and a severe mental health crisis—including an attempted murder on his life—Danny lost over 300 pounds and rebuilt his life from the ashes. Today, he uses his story to help students, educators, churches, and communities turn their pain into power and their tragedy into triumph.

Danny is the creator of the F.U.E.L. Framework—Faith, Understanding, Endurance, Love, a practical, hope-filled roadmap that has ignited breakthroughs in schools, recovery homes, youth programs, and faith-based organizations across the Southeast. His signature message, “Turning Pain into Energy for an Extraordinary Life,” inspires audiences to break cycles, build resilience, and believe that restoration is possible—no matter how deep the valley.

A Guido Bible College graduate, Danny has served as a Mental Health Minister, men’s ministry leader, and speaker for multiple churches and community organizations. His testimony has brought renewed hope to countless individuals, including residents in recovery homes who said they were ready to give up—until they heard him speak.

Passionate, authentic, and unforgettable, Danny blends humor, transparency, and spiritual truth with actionable strategies that audiences can use immediately. Whether on a school stage, a sanctuary platform, or a corporate training floor, Danny shows up with one mission: to help people find purpose in their pain and rise into the extraordinary future God created for them.
