Pete Cohen is a world-renowned speaker, coach, author, and expert in human potential, with over 30 years of experience helping individuals and organizations move from survival mode to thriving. He has worked with world-class athletes, Olympic champions, corporate leaders, and organizations globally, empowering them to unlock their full potential.

Pete is known as "Mr. Intention", specializing in mindset, human behavior, and high performance, focusing on the power of intentional living to enhance well-being, prevent disease, and shape the future. His work integrates psychology, neuroscience, and practical strategies to help people take ownership of their lives, break free from limiting beliefs, and create a meaningful future.
PETE'S JOURNEY AND CHALLENGES
Pete’s work is deeply rooted in his own life experiences. From a young age, he struggled with dyslexia, imposter syndrome, and feelings of inadequacy, always feeling as though he had to prove himself. Despite these challenges, he developed a relentless drive for success, pushing himself to achieve more in an effort to gain recognition and validation.
In his twenties, he battled chronic fatigue syndrome, a wake-up call that forced him to slow down but did not yet change his mindset. Even as he became a published author and a successful coach working with world champions, he still felt as though he was chasing something he could never quite reach.
A major turning point in his life came in 2010, when he met his wife, Hannah, during the Icelandic ash cloud crisis. Her presence and resilience had a profound impact on him. When she was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in 2011, they embarked on a journey to find groundbreaking treatments, defying expectations and prolonging her life well beyond the initial prognosis. She ultimately survived cancer twice but was later taken by COVID in 2023. Losing her was the hardest challenge Pete had ever faced, forcing him to confront his grief, his past, and his true purpose.
Through these personal challenges, Pete realized that so many people, like himself, live in survival mode—stuck in cycles of fear, stress, and self-doubt. He made it his mission to help others break free from these patterns, develop emotional flexibility, self-awareness, and intentionality, and step into a future of thriving rather than merely surviving.
A Life Transformed by Hannah’s Legacy
Hannah’s remarkable resilience and unwavering belief in the power of intentional thinking became a guiding light for Pete. Despite the heartbreak of her passing, her philosophy inspired him to transform his life. For Hannah, “Just Get On With IT” wasn’t about ignoring hardship—it was about embracing life’s challenges with grace, courage, and purpose, and staying deeply rooted in intentional thought.
Her legacy has propelled Pete Into a new chapter of his life, where he Is focusing heavily on the transformative power of intentional thinking. This philosophy drives his mission to show others how to turn their good intentions into purposeful, impactful actions that create real, lasting change.
