Mike Dutra

Mike Dutra was considered an “at-risk” child growing up; his father was not very involved in his life and he experienced a lot of hardship at a young age. Fortunately, there were a few men in his life who saw him and chose to step in and fill the gap his father had left in whatever ways they could. Mike has since spent much of his adult life passing that forward by investing in and mentoring other at-risk youth the way the men in his life had when he was a child. Mike is now the president of the rotary club in Westlake Village in another attempt to give back to his community and continue fostering a legacy of service and authentic connection. Is there anyone in your life that you might be gifted to pour into and invest in? What are some of the ways other people have invested in you? Watch the full interview to hear more of Mike’s story!
