Donna Lyons Interviews Superstar Motivational Speaker, Author, Recording Artist

High school motivational speaker, Super Star, yes that’s his legal name, was once a former owner/president of a successful cutting-edge computer consulting firm and he lost it all to a 15 year drug addiction. Super Star has since left his life on the streets in pursuit of recovery so he could mingle with Hollywood’s elite and follow his dreams. He has subsequently rebuilt his life with a purpose and commitment and now devotes his time to inspire others to move beyond destructive behaviors including anti-substance use campaigning. In his quest, he legally changed his name to Super Star so that people would remember his message and guess what? It’s working!

Today, he is a sought after Middle and High School Motivational Speaker, Recording Artist, an Author, Professional Dream Catcher Coach and Columnist. Through his work, Super Star’s goal is to engage teens and adults in crucial conversations about the impact of those things that hold people back from realizing their dreams including substance use disorder. Super Star wants people to know you don’t need to party or use drugs to be a “star”. His message is about inspiring others to see that there is a light out of the darkness; that there is HOPE. Super Star overcame obstacles with a creative boldness to invent the life he was born to live.

His journey began with creating the ROCKSTAR SUPERSTAR PROJECT where he co-created with his twin brother, Serenity, a CD featuring a host of world renowned artists including current and former members of the bands Kiss, Heart, The Goo Goo Dolls, Dokken, and Trans-Siberian Orchestra. He additionally penned the critically acclaimed book, The First 30 Days to Serenity which has received accolades from professionals in the field of addiction.
