Peter was born crosseyed and, for years, was bullied by his schoolmates. He had corrective surgeries when he was two, four, ten, thirteen, and nineteen. When you listen to his crazy (and adventurous) journey, you can understand how this experience shaped his tenacity and grit. 

At twenty-seven, in the middle of his Ph.D. studies,  a non-malignant colon cancer diagnosis sparks a  "midlife crisis" and propels Peter into entrepreneurship; he quit school and dove into entrepreneurship by opening a biking, walking, wine, golf, and high-end luxury package touring company.

This is when Peter discovers that "when you spend your own money, you learn very quickly."
