(Printable Bio) - American bobsled athlete, former head coach, motivational and inspirational speaker and author Jeremy C. Holm has been entertaining and thrilling audiences for over twenty years with powerful and life-changing stories and lessons learned from a lifetime in sports. In 1997 Jeremy experienced a four-man bobsled ride on the brand new Park City, Utah course and began a career in this adrenaline-producing winter Olympic sport. Since that fateful day, Jeremy has spent half his life on the ice as an athlete and later as a coach to some of the first adaptive Paralympic bobsled athletes in the world. Jeremy has become a trusted and highly sought after keynote speaker and presenter across the map.

The Struggles

As with many of history's greats, Jeremy's successes were matched equally by adversity. As a teenager Jeremy began a lifelong battle with anxiety and depression that has left him with deep insight into the troubles and pains that so many face in life, including those moments when we want to give up. Using powerful stories, courageous honesty and humorous anecdotes, Jeremy brings a touching level of compassion and integrity to each event and leaves audiences moved and inspired.
