Jeff Peterson: Life Doesn’t Have to Be Perfect to be Beautiful

Over the years he has had many similar surgeries, each with its own set of challenges and victories. Despite the challenges of surgery, he traveled the world with Up with People, got married, raised three children, worked as a private investigator, and is now a speaker, author, the owner of a non-profit organization, Hydro with Hope, and the host of a TV show called “Invisible Condition” that airs LIVE twice a week on e360tv.
Through Hydro with Hope and his TV show, Jeff spreads the message that FIRST: you are not alone. SECOND: There is HOPE, and THIRD: There is a community of HELP and resources out there for you. Jeff and his wife, Catherine, live in Colorado Springs, CO with their 3 children.
