A dramatic accident. Remaking a life in Canada. Coming back to the U.S. Putting himself through college. These are all parts of Lee Gaul's story.
In this Origin Story session, I speak with Lee, advertising professional, about how he worked through a challenging adolescence, supporting himself through his teenage years, and navigated university admissions without his parents.
Some topics covered:
Nobody has a perfect childhood. Everyone has a different story and background.
What you're born into does not have to be your fate. You make your future.
