Exclusive – Gregory Iron – Defying The Odds & Wrestling With Cerebral Palsy
With wrestling not always lasting forever, it is important to spread your wings and see what else you can do to inspire, create and motivate. One such wrestler is Gregory Iron. Gregory Iron is so much more than his condition, and he wants to give back and support those who need it.
Bodyslam.net discussed his next steps within the motivational industry, and why he wants to go down that road.
Gregory began by talking about why he’s started to share his story,
Over the last couple of years I’ve been really understanding how being vulnerable and willing to share my story, even the parts of it that have hurt me the most, can have a positive impact on people, particularly young kids.
Gregory would then talk about why he wants to do motivational speaking,
Motivational speaking has been the only thing that I’ve found in my life that gives me the same overwhelming feeling that I get from the act of pro wrestling. The instant connections that I create with others, and helping to make children feel as though they aren’t alone — that here’s this adult that has experienced similar feelings as me and now he’s in front of me living his dreams — it’s a feeling I can’t describe, being the speaker that I needed to visit my school when I was a kid, ya know?
Gregory then discussed why his story is so important to share,
I’m trying to impact people from all walks of life by sharing my story, whether its at a school, a business, a charity event, a speaker series — any place in need of inspiration — I want to be able to share my experiences in life and in wrestling in an effort to let others know that you don’t have to believe the lies that people tell you when they say that dreams are impossible. My story is proof that dreams can become reality.
