About Ryan Perez

Welcome. I’m Ryan Perez.

I’m a single dad, creator, coach, and storyteller who believes that Radical Expression, Acceptance, and Joy aren’t luxuries—they’re survival strategies for building lives that work.

I’m a neurodivergent keynote speaker, performance and well-being coach, author, and media producer with deep roots in rap, comedy, and community activism. With over 300,000 followers and millions of views across social platforms, I turn vulnerability into viral impact.

I speak with the Speakers Bureau of Canada, host the Pathway to the Heart podcast, and write books that move people—from the raw memoir I’m Autistic, Bich! to the socially charged novel Frozen by Light. My work helps people and organizations build adaptive, inclusive cultures driven by authenticity and joy.

I believe self-expression is data. That joy is the unlock. That acceptance isn’t optional—it’s the power source. I’m still here—proof that you can fall through the cracks and still build something brilliant.

About Ryan

Ryan Speaking

Radical doesn’t mean reckless—it means real.

I help communities and organizations activate radical resonance through joy, inclusion, and authentic storytelling.

Through keynotes, coaching, and creative media, I guide leaders, educators, and entrepreneurs toward building inclusive systems that don’t just work—they thrive. My framework transforms Radical Expression, Acceptance, and Joy into a cultural flywheel that accelerates innovation, connection, and resilience.
