How To Lean On Your Best Self When Life Gets Hard with Brad Pedersen @ Pela

Imagine a stranger sent you a box of toys…

So many you had to hide them from your kids because it’s more than you’d give them on a Christmas day!

That’s the story of how I met Brad Pedersen.

Random chance encounter in the Air Canada lounge several years back.

We got talking. And then Brad dropped the question:

“Do you have kids?”

“I do.”

“Give me your address and I’ll send you a gift.”

Turns out Brad is a real-life Santa Claus.

He’s built a toy company that’s shipped billions of pieces of plastic around the world…

And now he’s the co-founder of Pela, a startup that creates phone cases that are 100% compostable.

But do you know the most inspiring thing about Brad?

He’s hit rock bottom, twice.

2 corporate bankruptcies.

Plus, he got married and had kids in his early 20s.

His family had to weather all the storms with him.

And yet he’s come through it full of life and is one of the most adventurous people I know.

It’s pure gold.
