    The Most Positive Man You've Never Met - Diogo Grecco Giglio

    Send us a text This week I was blessed to have a man I have wanted to bring onto the podcast for some time as his words and his energy and unmatched.  By the age of 13, Diogo’s life took a dramatic turn, he was forced to leave his home in Brazil after standing against the strict religious rules of his family. With nothing but determination, he journeyed across different countries before eventually landing in Australia, a place he had never even visited before. Fast forward to today, Diogo has built an extraordinary life: he leads a thriving construction and development company, and is a student of life still.  It would mean the world to me if you join me on this journey and hit that subscribe button wherever you choose to tune in.
