William David Rhame, Clearwater, Florida founded Life Lesson Coaching (LLC) featuring POWER with Words, a program that teaches children and adults effective communication skills. He started as a broker with Shearson-Lehman, where he founded the CPA Club, a national franchise offering Continuing Professional Education (CPE) and networking opportunities for certified public accountants and financial consultants. He co-wrote the 1999 book Business Golf: The Art of Building Relationships Through Golf with the late sportscaster Pat Summerall. William is also a licensed USPTA Pro, and is currently teaching tennis in Clearwater, Florida. He has served as director of tennis at the Sennit Tennis Club, the Woods Tennis Complex and Innisbrook Golf and Spa Resort. He founded the Executive Sports Club to help professional athletes transition from sports to business, and he is a neurofeedback technician, training professional athletes on how to stay in “the zone” without stress. William also has worked as a substitute teacher, and that experience inspired him to write The Voyagers series, which offers a life lesson for children in every chapter. His favorite UNT memory is starting the 3D Club (Delta Dudes & Dolls), a “frasority.”
