TODAY’S GUEST

Every so often we score a guest on the Dream Big Podcast who has so much positive energy and wisdom to share that we know we have a special episode on our hands as soon as we finish recording.  This is what we felt after our discussion with DeVon Franklin. DeVon is a New York Times bestselling author, spiritual success coach, and the CEO of Franklin Entertainment, a production company in conjunction with 20th Century Fox. He is the producer of the box office hit Miracles from Heaven and the most recent release, THE STAR, for Sony Pictures Animation.

Variety named DeVon one of the “10 Producers to Watch” and he’s Dr. Oz’s go-to guy for spiritual success coaching on The Dr. Oz Show as well as the co-host of the TLC event series, This Is Life Live.  He is also the author of the New York Times bestseller, The Wait (co-written with his wife, award-winning actress Meagan Good) and Produced By Faith.
