(Ep 5) Breaking Through Obstacles with Roger Lolly
When you grow up on a small island and your road is named after your family, you must be destined for greatness, like becoming a professional baseball player. Roger Lolly is a dreamer, but taking his five kids to the museum of his hometown on Pine Island to show off his baseball paraphernalia was something even Roger never saw coming. Obstacles became a way of life for him at a young age starting when he lost his father in a tragic accident. Listen to Roger as he talks about how overcoming a barrage of curve balls in his life built character, giving him the strength to become one of only two professional ball players to return to the game after a hip replacement at 25, (you’ll be surprised to hear the name of the other one) and the courage to make a life-changing decision with his wife no parent should have to make. Listen to how facing forward on your journey with a smile and an eye on helping others has only one destination. Success.
BIO
Roger Lolly is a man who doesn’t allow opportunity to pass him by. With his ‘I can’ attitude and refusing to fall prey to a victim mentality, even major setbacks haven’t deterred him from accomplishing multiple levels of success, from the world of professional sports to building thriving businesses. Graduating with a Masters in Business from Liberty University, and later achieving an Ed. D in Educational Leadership, Roger’s passion remains in helping others. Starting as a child when his dad was killed and his mother was suddenly left to raise two little boys alone, he knew where his heart was, which is why he established If I Can Dream Foundation, a self-funded 501c3 he founded to provide services throughout the state of Florida to individuals with special needs. With a zest for life and boundless energy, Roger is also the CEO of Abez North America, Clutch Recruiting and Allcare National and has part ownership in others. But being a Goodwill Ambassador to Haiti is one of his most rewarding and proudest achievements that spawned from his years of helping others even as a little boy. When character matters.
Roger resides in Fort Myers, Florida with his wife and five active children where he takes his responsibility as role model very seriously.
