41. Sebastián Marroquín no longer lives in the shadow of his drug lord father, Pablo Escobar All The Wiser

    • Self-Improvement

Love doesn't make Sebastián Marroquín blind to the damage done by his father, Pablo Escobar. But he does credit the infamous cartel kingpin for giving him the tools to reinvent himself, far away from his long, dark shadow. As a child, Juan Pablo Escobar (his given name) was treated to everything a kid could want: swimming pools, go-karts, exotic zoo animals, until his father's crimes forced the family into a life of hiding where no amount of money could ensure their safety. The extreme violence left a lasting impression on Marroquin, who changed his name and has dedicated his adult life to making amends with his father's victims. He has met with over 150 families and declared by the World Peace Organization, an ambassador of peace.
