In this episode, we get to speak with Carlo Taormina.
Carlo Taormina has achieved the “near impossible” as he puts it when he describes overcoming clinical depression and suicidal ideation. Carlo has always been one to help people with his background in Personal Training, Life Coaching and as a Keynote Speaker.
Carlo rose from the depths of his mental illness to share his story of overcoming self doubt, destroying limiting beliefs and unleashing the real “You” in order to help those in similar positions. From sharing his story on social media, coaching clients and speaking on the largest stages, Carlo has had people approach him saying his message saved their life.
As a powerful coach and keynote speaker, Carlo’s drive impacts all as he shares his message with Fortune 500’s, Universities and Local Communities.
This is going to be an awesome conversation!
