Carter Lee Quick Facts
Carter Lee is president of Innovative Social Dynamics LLC, the author of When Jonathan Cried for Me, columnist of In That Moment of Space for The Washington Times Communities, a professional speaker and consultant. Carter is known for his charismatic speaking style, magnetic personality and strong self-confidence. He presents his messages with an eloquent diction and style as only he can deliver. Coming from a diverse background, Carter wasn’t always the personification of self-improvement.
Formerly an actor, stand-up comedian, and involved in the sports-entertainment industry, Carter was a licensed professional wrestler, promoter, and booker. He also competed in mixed martial arts as a shoot fighter and wrestled both in the freestyle and Greco Roman style. It was the entertainment industry where Carter polished his skills as a public performer and communicator. The athletic side of professional wrestling gave Carter the opportunity to really explore his personality and develop his charisma.
The business side of the sports-entertainment industry, with booking and promoting, required him to deal with entrepreneurs, local state government officials and corporate executives. Putting together these complex deals helped Carter develop confidence in negotiating with others and a sense of self-worth. It was through this position and many years of being involved in this industry, that he became a master of negotiation and communication, which led to his success in the industry.
Yet, despite the success that Carter found in the sports-entertainment industry, and the increased confidence wrestling gave him, he still struggled with past demons and in achieving true self-confidence and self-esteem. Like so many of us, he struggled with the challenges and stress of life.
He was later diagnosed with chronic depression, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) due to childhood sexual abuse from the hands of a pedophile, and struggled with his weight. During this time went through a painful divorce resulting from his anger issues and felt hopeless and lost. He then decided he was going to stop living under the oppression of his negative thoughts and emotions, constantly searching for the will to get through each day. Here Carter began a mental and spiritual journey that would change and shape his life, and those around him.
After studying numerous techniques, quantum mechanics, the mind, and spiritual philosophies, Carter found the combination that began to have a strong impact his life and produced results. Through these techniques Carter gained and achieved gifts he never thought he would possess. He acquired a healthy self-esteem and genuine self-confidence; after changing and reprogramming his mindset he is free of depression and PTSD, is on no medications, and no longer struggles with his weight or anger.
After his transformation, Carter started meeting with friends and acquaintances to share with them what he had learned. Even those who already considered themselves healthy and self-confident, gained even more and felt even better about themselves, which proves that there is no end to self-improvement. He was encouraged by his friends to make a career of sharing his knowledge and techniques to help people to achieve the very same thing, thus was born Innovative Social Dynamics LLC.
Carter Now defines his life purpose and meaning in dedicating his time in helping others achieve Inner-Peace, True-Self-Esteem, Total-Self-Confidence; and helping to spread awareness of sexual child abuse.

Music Shapes our Psyche: “Time, truth, heart”
Christian, my stepson, is quite young, just nine now. Particularly for his age, he has a very eclectic taste in music. He constantly brags about how he loves that he has learned so much about music. But it is we that have learned so much about music. Music is one part of the glue that bonds us, even though his mother and I are no longer together. Music provides a soundtrack to our lives and we can use music to not only bring us back to important moments, but to shape the moments of our futures.
