Denis Vallee is a serial business entrepreneur, author and speaker who has followed an unlikely road to success.

After beginning life in a small town in the rural Gaspésie region of Quebec, his childhood and adolescence was spent moving from town to town as his family followed his father’s construction work.

Through his disrupted upbringing, he learned to get what he wanted the hard way – getting into trouble at school and selling drugs by age 12. His late teens took him through alcohol abuse, violence, multiple car accidents and trouble with the law before a series of critical events led him to a personal awakening about life purpose and goals.

Part of what emerged was a passion for helping others. After having made plenty of mistakes in his life, he realized that he had developed a unique perspective on how to create meaning from an otherwise empty life.

Denis wants to share his story with others to help them understand the great potential that their lives have.
