I invited Paul to give a motivational talk to our GAA football club in London. Paul spoke to our men's and ladies teams on the importance of never giving up and always maintaining a positive attitude throughout adversity to enable you to achieve your goals. The talk had a profound effect on everybody who attended. I would highly recommend Paul to any club or organisation.

Paul not only has an inspiring and thought provoking story to tell but has a magical way of telling it filling you with hope and belief. Paul doesn't look for sympathy or even empathy for his story, he merely demands you to empower yourself to achieve all you dare to dream.
I dare you to walk away from Paul's presentation and not feel invincible and feel like you can achieve anything.
