The Art of Cheese: Mike Geno's Culinary Portraits  | HarmonyTALK #72

Micah Dawanyi is a wearer of many hats- author, coach, illustrator, and speaker, to name a few. Micah grew up as an athlete, but at 15, he was forced to cut his soccer career short after suffering from a series of medical conditions and injuries, the most notable being a life-threatening heart condition. At 16, he earned his first national coaching license, becoming the youngest licensed coach in South Florida’s history. Micah used his license to start a non-profit training business to serve underfunded communities, leading to a student activism award issued by the City of Coral Spring’s Martin Luther King Jr. Committee. 

During the summer of 2020, Micah published his first book, “Step Into My Shoes: Memoirs From the Other Side of America”, a series of memoirs focusing on racial injustice. Shortly after the publication of his book, Micah began working on social justice projects with media companies across the nation to help spread awareness about social injustice. 

As a psychology student in college, Micah also developed a strong interest in mental health. In 2022, he published his second book, “Battle Scars & Blossoms: A Journey Through the Mind”, a fictional work dealing with grief, emotional suppression, and the stigmas around therapy. The novel led to partnerships with local schools and international mental health institutes to facilitate conversations around mental health.

Late in 2024, Micah graduated with his master’s degree and released his third book, “When the Record Stops Spinning,” a science-fiction story about purpose, identity, and healing your inner child.

Whether speaking, coaching, writing, or working on social justice projects, Micah's intent always remains to encourage, enlighten, and empower.
