Public Speaking

Different Endless Possibilities

Tom Haig spent his 20s traveling the globe as one of the world's best - and riskiest - professional high divers. It took him to more than 60 countries on five continents. He then parlayed his athletic career into working dozens of major sporting events for the sports industry giant Adidas.

But in one day Tom went from someone who had no fear jumping off 80 ft. cliffs to someone who was afraid to approach a curb.

Hear the story of how this former extreme athlete re-invented his life - and can inspire you to retool too!
