    If you want to get support directly from us to remove your repetitive self-doubt, join our FREE community: The Sport Is Life Movement

    Episode Summary

    In this episode, Ian and Peter discussed the inspiring journey of overcoming adversity and achieving his ambitions.  Peter exceeded medical expectations by staying positive and picturing his recovery after being diagnosed with stage four terminal cancer in 2014.

    • Impact of Coaching and Influence on Young People
    • The Power of Visualization and Positive Thinking
    • The Importance of Focus and Moving Forward
    • The Impact of Coaching on Personal and Professional Growth
    • The Importance of Never Giving Up

    About the Guest:

    Few people, if any, had to overcome the number and magnitude of catastrophic, life-altering events that Peter Di Prinzio has. Defying the odds and prognosis of his oncologist, surviving a stint in gaol when otherwise he had never even been fined, coming back from financial ruin, attempted suicide, and, enduring the heartbreak of a broken marriage, it fell apart, and due to circumstances, Peter has not seen or heard from his daughter since 2008, Peter’s life has been unique and a shining example of his favourite catchphrase “never give up!”.

    Life has challenged and punched Peter to the ground many times, but his unwavering faith in God and the unshakable belief that he has a purpose to fulfill, have given him the strength to stand up and beat each of these hardships and use his life experiences to bring hope to thousands of others.

    "Peter Di Prinzio's amazing life story, is like a Hollywood Movie Script, except it happens to be a real life story" - Hills Independent Magazine

    "To hear a true story like Peter's, is nothing short of an eye-opener, and definitely live up to his saying Never Give Up" - Jack Rajwan - BJY Capital

    "Peter's story is the key that may unlock someone else's prison.... Peter must share his story to the world" - Kamal Boutros - Sydney Lawyer
