About Avi
00:00 - 00:00

Hello, I’m Avi!

I’m a 3-time axe throwing champion and best-selling author, but the road to success wasn’t easy; it never is.

Through my speeches, I not only take listeners on my journey from childhood trauma and mental health struggles to champion, I explain WHY it’s possible and HOW it’s possible for them to do the same.  

My hope is that every student, professional, and person within the sound of my voice will walk away ignited with the resilient self-belief to achieve goals they once deemed impossible.

MESSAGES THAT INSPIRE

TRAILBLAZING SUCCESS ON YOUR OWN TERMS

Creating a Concise Path to Succeed in Business and Careers

With thought-provoking stories from his own personal journey, Avi provides audiences with an unconventional roadmap to thriving in competitive industries on your own terms. He explores how to leverage strengths while overcoming self-doubt, build resilience in the face of setbacks, and create fulfilling careers by looking within first.

UNLOCKING THE POWER OF RESILIENCE

Overcoming Mental
Health Struggles

Avi bravely opens up his decades-long struggles with bipolar disorder, depression, and anxiety from childhood in order to dismantle stigma around discussing mental health. He reveals hard-learned lessons on constructing a self-care regimen as the foundation to managing illness, redirecting negative self-talk, and more.

DARING TO DEFINE YOUR OWN SUCCESS

Finding Your Spark to
Believe in Yourself Again

By getting vulnerable about the religious pressures, academic failures, and exclusion he experienced growing up, Avi connects with those who feel disconnected from their greatness. He shares how he continuously nurtures his inner light to power through hardships. Audiences will learn to define success for themselves, quiet self-criticism, and unlock reservoirs of self-belief.

MORE THAN JUST WORDS

I give my listeners and students more than just a boost of confidence and inspirational thoughts to ponder. When you walk away from one of my speeches, you’ll have actionable tools, strategies, methods, and advice that can be put into practice immediately.

About Avi Wolfson


I’m all about helping others re-ignite the spark inside. Confidence and success are contagious and fostering that kind of change causes a ripple effect in your life. One simple spark can create your own Phoenix story as you rise from the ashes and make the impossible possible.

For me, that spark carried me to become a best-selling author, and three-time axe-throwing champion, but my story doesn’t start with my successes.  My story starts with a little boy that grew up with the impression he was a loser, feeling worthless and helpless. The environment I rose from wasn’t healthy; I struggled academically, and while resilient, I felt inadequate for a long time.

As a young adult, I was diagnosed with Bipolar Type I (previously known as Manic Depression) and Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). The anxiety was evident and present within my family but seldom talked about, nor did I have permission to feel sad or express any feeling besides happiness. In addition, I felt pressured to take on heavily religious activities I had no interest in; this all took a heavy toll on my mental health, leading me down the dark path of alcohol and drug abuse.

I joined the US National Guard in high school to absolve myself of this shame. I was proud to serve a country that I love and protect the society in which we live so freely, but being in the military didn’t solve any of those problems, nor did it make them go away. I was back at square one, at rock bottom.

As a self-starter, independent learner, and resilient survivor, I knew I’d have to find it within myself if I had any hope of a resolution, and that’s exactly what I did. I tapped into the power we all have within us and eventually found purpose, fulfillment, happiness, and true joy.

I had to share this with everyone!  

What started as writing down ‘lessoned learned’ eventually became thirty titles about my life experiences and evolved into life coaching, helping others become confident and experienced, and now a career as a public speaker. I search for those underdogs that struggle with business, career, school, life, and mental health just like I did… And show them how to discover the champion they have inside!
