In this episode of *Happy Business Radio*, host Peter Salerno sits down with business coach and mentor Sinan Abu Aisheh, who shares his remarkable journey from a troubled youth to becoming a leader in the coaching industry.
Sinan reflects on his early years, growing up in a Middle Eastern family in Australia, and the influences that led him into a life of gang involvement and violence during his teenage years.
As he navigated a world filled with crime and addiction, Sinan began to question his path, especially after experiencing dangerous situations and the realisation that his life was spiralling out of control.
A turning point came when he reconciled with his estranged father, allowing him to release built-up anger and start transforming his mindset.
Sinan credits martial arts as a crucial element in his redemption. Under the guidance of a former Lebanese Special Forces trainer, he developed the discipline and mental toughness necessary to move away from his past.
This training not only helped him manage his emotions but also set the foundation for his future in business. His foray into network marketing opened doors, where he eventually built a customer base of 30,000 and began sharing his story on stages with thousands of people.
His powerful personal experiences made him realise the impact his journey could have on others, inspiring him to launch a coaching business focused on peak performance, mindset, and business growth.
Throughout the conversation, Peter and Sinan discuss the importance of collaboration, networking, and finding the right mentors for different stages of life. Sinan's philosophy revolves around helping others create rituals and systems that sustain long-term success, rather than relying solely on willpower.
His story is a testament to how early struggles and life-changing decisions can shape one's path to success, and how personal transformation can fuel professional achievements. Sinan's insights provide valuable lessons for listeners, especially those looking to overcome adversity and thrive in their business endeavours.
