Previous experience
Background: A former Irish national and international sporting champion, stuntman and entrepreneur, he has lived and competed in some of the most exotic places in the world. To do this, he had to overcome a tough upbringing in the rough neighborhoods of post-war Dublin and a personal health setback
Illness: In his mid twenties, a rare crippling disease that immobilized his limbs brought his world championship career to an abrupt halt. Doctors advised him that he would at best regain 60% of the use of his arms and legs and never compete again. Within two years, Rowland defied the odds, not only taught himself to walk again, but to compete and beat his peers.
Rowland’s audiences enjoy his natural Irish charm and his story documents a journey many can only dream about. He will reveal his ‘secret’ about turning misery into opportunity.
