When God Hides Gold in Discomfort - William Plange

When God Hides Gold in Discomfort is a powerful message drawn from my personal journey—vanishing into the forest under the weight of depression, only to discover purpose in the very place I wanted to escape. In this talk, I share how pain, rejection, and isolation often carry hidden treasures—lessons, clarity, and divine direction. Just like gold is buried deep and refined through fire, our greatest value is often uncovered through struggles. This session will remind you that discomfort isn’t a punishment—it’s preparation. Sometimes, God hides purpose in pain to reveal strength, birth vision, and lead you into your true calling.


William Plange is a speaker, coach, and 9x international bestselling author whose life proves that no human is ever truly useless. Born in Ghana, he once disappeared into the forest, overwhelmed by depression and self-doubt. In that solitude, he discovered purpose and birthed NO HUMAN IS USELESS, a nonprofit movement dedicated to helping people break free from shame, heal emotional wounds, and reclaim their worth. William’s raw storytelling and global impact have inspired thousands and earned him the Caribbean Global Award in the UK for his work in depression recovery. He is now launching the first NO HUMAN IS USELESS Annual Conference—a safe space for those fighting silent battles—with plans to take this message of hope to Canada, the UK, the USA, and South Africa. William's journey from despair to purpose is a reminder that within every broken story lies the power to heal and transform.
