As a child Colin Sprake was a target of bullying because he had to wear special boots to compensate for severe problems with his feet. The ridicule intensified the older he became until when he was in high school, he would often return from school and sit for hours at the foot of his bed with tears running down his face. Adding insult to injury, he was also sexually abused by someone in his neighborhood. The torment he experienced was so painful that in high school he attempted suicide several times.
So how did Colin go from wanting to die to inspiring thousands of people to live? Watch this interview to hear Colin’s turning point with John Kehoe, his incredible entrepreneurial spirit, and how what he experienced as a young person fuels his passion to transform lives.
