Ryan Matthews
Ryan Matthews is an inspirational speaker, author and decorated veteran (thanks so much for your service Ryan) who trained elite Army K-9s and then became a civilian dog-trainer using his proven formula to train over 3,000 dogs. He earned almost a million dollars in 2½ years. As a workaholic; his success was plagued by the effects of a childhood trauma and PTSD. At age 30 he was diagnosed with multiple, life-threatening conditions. After a near-death experience, he felt like a failure. He decided to transform himself and share his story to help others thrive. Author of "The Canine Connection" and "Heel Your Dog, Heal Your Life", Ryan’s mission in life is to share his gifts and talents to positively transform the lives of others. His first TEDx talk is called “Overcoming PTSD with Dog Training Techniques” and his second is “Life Lessons Dogs Teach Humans.”
