Take heart, peers. Often, our most painful experiences can become the catalyst to our purpose in life. For James Lolicato, being one of the only openly gay students in PE classes was an isolating and tumultuous experience. But after gaining the courage to dive back into sports, he resolved to turn his struggle into his strength, and make sporting organisations more inclusive and safe for LGBTI+ youth. In this episode, James boldly shares his experiences in high school, how he found the confidence to fight for LGBTI inclusion, and how we too can forge meaning from our greatest struggles. James Lolicato is the co-founder of Proud2Play and Pride Cup Australia.

PEERS. ESTABLISHED 2017. 9 YEARS OF FOUNDER STORIES.
Hello fellow founder,
Welcome to PEERS — the podcast that treats founders like what they actually are:…
I'm Michelle Akhidenor, Forbes 30 Under 30 Lister, and each week I sit down with a founder to go beneath the highlight reel: Where did they come from? What shaped the choices that got them here? What almost broke them — and how have they kept going?
This isn't a founder story told from the outside. It's founder to founder, peer to peer — honest, unfiltered, human. Because the version of entrepreneurship people see is rarely the one that we live.
Welcome to the table, peers. Let's dive in.
