Andrew Haley wasn’t supposed to live but he’s had more than 30 years of success and failures since them. He was a child when he suffered through cancer twice with a 35 percent chance of surviving each time. He lost some of his right leg and a part of his left lung but never gave up.

He left the hospital and learned how to ride a bike within a week even though doctors said it would take a year. Andrew believes you are your own best cheerleader and that makes him both an accomplished businessperson and an elite athlete. He is a three-time World and Paralympic Champion, a multiple World Record Holder, and a Hall of Fame swimmer.

Andrew shows others how resilience and mental toughness can be done with a world-class mindset. He believes anything is possible with hard work and that people can own their destiny. That is the heart of his presentations.

Testimonials

I attended the Healthcare Supply Chain Network conference last month (Toronto May 2014), and had the great privilege of hearing your inspirational testimony. Your message of determination in the face of adversity was extremely impactful to me. The line I was most significantly left with was – “tough times do not last, tough people do.” I know the one certainty of life is that we just don’t know what is coming around the corner. Your talk encouraged me to take a step back and really assess what I hold to be meaningful, and, most importantly, to list out goals that I have until now only seen as un-achievable. You have proven that any height is reachable. Thanks for the nudge forward man. Andrew spoke with passion and enthusiasm about his childhood, battles with cancer, and triumphs in the pool and how he gives 110% living his life based not around the circumstances presented, but how he can react to them. He establishes a rapport with his audiences young and old through his candid demeanour. Some were inspired by his athletic accomplishments, others by his drive and dedication. All agreed that he had an exception story to tell, and were thankful he shared it with us. – YMCA of Cambridge & Kitchener-Waterloo
