Brendan's message:
“I want to educate people, to share my life stories in the hope that it may touch others and help those in need. As difficult as my past has been, it has given me a gift- it has given me the ability to transform negative situations into positive experiences and has allowed me to pass on my own life lessons in the hope of enriching someone else's future. Life can be the hardest teacher; we have to learn, grow and make changes before it’s too late. If I can share the lessons I have learned from my life, then hopefully I can help make someone else’s life better”.
