Jim’s journey began with a serious brain injury sustained in early childhood, which left him struggling with concentration, memory, and learning. His teachers labelled him as having a “broken brain,” and he often found solace in comic books, identifying with characters who felt misunderstood. Despite these early challenges, he managed to get into university, though he was on the verge of failing. A chance encounter with a mentor introduced him to the concept of learning how to learn – a turning point that shifted his entire trajectory. This experience ignited a lifelong mission to help others tap into the full potential of their minds.
