Rory Graham is an author, speaker, and entrepreneur who believes that life’s greatest disruptions can become its most meaningful turning points. With more than forty years of experience as a business owner, storyteller, and creative professional, Rory has spent his career helping others capture what matters—first through video and media, and now through words that inspire transformation.

After the loss of his wife of fifty years following a long battle with Parkinson’s disease, Rory found himself at a crossroads. The life he had carefully built no longer existed, and the future felt uncertain. Rather than retreat, he made a conscious decision to rebuild—intentionally, thoughtfully, and with purpose. That journey became the foundation for Life 2.0, a practical and deeply personal framework for rediscovering
clarity, confidence, and direction after loss or change.

Rory is the founder of Allied Video Services, a Virginia-based company he built and led for over four decades, earning a reputation for excellence, integrity, and storytelling. He is also the President of Rory Graham Life Strategies. Under that umbrella, he has authored four books: Finding Happiness, Did I Tell You I Love You Today?, Finding Light In The Darkness and Diagnosis Parkinson’s Disease — Now What?, which reflect his commitment to resilience, gratitude, and living with intention.

In addition to writing, Rory hosts the Successtraks podcast, where he interviews entrepreneurs and leaders about the real stories behind success—the struggles, the pivots, and the breakthroughs that define a life well lived. Today, Rory speaks and writes for those standing at their own turning points—whether navigating loss, retirement, reinvention, or an unexpected life shift. His message is simple but powerful: You are not starting over. You are starting forward.

Rory lives in Virginia Beach, where he continues to help others design lives of meaning,purpose, and possibility—one new beginning at a time.
