About Mark Fabian

Born in 1971 and raised in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, Mark Fabian is the eldest of three children who grew up in a home shadowed by severe physical, emotional, and psychological abuse. From an early age, daily life was marked by fear at home and at school, where bullying compounded the challenges of childhood. This continuous environment of threat shaped Mark deeply. As a survival mechanism, he honed an extraordinary ability to read people’s non-verbal cues, tuning his Limbic Brain to anticipate danger before it arrived.

Despite this constant backdrop of fear, a pivotal moment arrived when Mark made a deliberate choice: to stop outsourcing his happiness and success to external circumstances and others’ control. This conscious decision transformed his path, fueling a lifelong commitment to mastering fear, reclaiming personal power, and developing resilience.  Mark spent over a decade serving his community as an EMS and firefighter in Pennsylvania, graduated from the Allentown Law Enforcement Academy, and honorably served in both the United States Air Force and the Pennsylvania Army National Guard. He is a nationally certified Situational Awareness for Everyone (S.A.F.E.) Instructor, a nationally recognized expert in Managing FEAR, and a Certified Neuroscience Coach.

The blend of his lived experience, formal training, and innate skill in reading people has made Mark a compelling communicator and educator, passionate about empowering others to overcome fear and navigate life’s uncertainties.

When not inspiring audiences or working, Mark enjoys quiet moments at home with his wife and their four dogs.
