Before Leon Logothetis became a global adventurer, TV host, motivational speaker, and best-selling author, he was living an uninspired and disconnected life as a broker in London. On the outside, it looked like he had it all. But inside, he was chronically depressed. He decided to do something radical about it – give it all up for a life on the road.
He embarked on an adventure around the globe, fueled by the receiving and giving of kindness. On his journey, he found the essence of humanity and learned about the bonds that connect people worldwide. Through kindness, he discovered that when we start to compare ourselves by our similarities instead of our differences, we start to create a brighter future.
For over a decade, he has traveled to over 100 countries and to every continent. He's documented his experiences through his best-selling books and TV shows. Leon has devoted his life to inspiring the world with his message of kindness and hope. This is best shown through his hit tv show "The Kindness Diaries" now streaming on discovery plus.
He's worked with many well-being brands and companies to ignite a spark of love, adventure, and humanity into their message and expand their global awareness. When he's not making TV shows and writing books, he's traveling around the world, speaking to schools and businesses about the power of kindness, compassion, and empathy. Leon's goal is to always make a positive impact with his work and content.

Patrick Sweeney grew up terrified of everything. He didn't have confidence or self-esteem. His biggest fear was flying. He made excuses every time he had a chance to fly – on exchange programs, to family reunions, for big races, Patrick made excuses to cover up the shame he felt of being afraid. He was lying to the world and himself.
Then at 35 he got one of the rarest forms of leukemia. The doctors told him to say his good-byes. That was when he chose courage. He realized that being courageous is a choice. It wasn't courage for himself but for his then 1-year-old daughter and unborn son. He decided that if he beat the disease and got out of John's Hopkins he'd get over his fear of flying. That's exactly what he did.
He decided to get his private pilots license. It was terrifying, but he still took the first frightening step. Then an incredible thing happened. He fell in love with flying. He now flies a stunt plane in aerobatic competitions. It is one of the greatest joys in his life, a true passion that was hidden from him because of fear. His choice had a halo effect on his whole life. Suddenly courage became his superpower. It all started with that first small step.
Patrick's life changed and he wants you to see that so can yours. That's why he left the lucrative start-up world behind; to write Fear is Fuel and help millions of people find courage and the life of their dreams. When we become authentic, strong and confident we can achieve world peace. That's his dream.
