If you've ever used your upbringing or your past as an excuse, this is an episode you can't afford to miss.

Mike sits down and chats with Kendal Netmaker, award-winning entrepreneur, author, and keynote speaker who is on a mission to empower and motivate people around the world by sharing his story of resilience and leadership. He and his siblings were raised by their single mother in Sweetgrass First Nation, and although surrounded by poverty and very few opportunities, he was able to rise up and harness his gift of storytelling to help change the world.

Listen in as Kendal shares his story of entrepreneurship against the odds, how he bet on himself and never let his failures stop him, and why the best foundation starts in the home. We also chat about the power of owning your story (no matter what it entailed!) using your story to lift yourself up, and why it's often the best leaders who have overcome the most in life.

John Langan is an award-winning author and a speaker who has touched thousands with his story on resilience, perseverance, and intergenerational residential school trauma. He's also a soldier, a police officer, traditional knowledge and language keeper, and a father and husband. He stopped by the show to share some fantastic wisdom about growing up Indigenous and overcoming life's many obstacles.

We get into so much, including what drove John to share the beauty of Indigenous culture and ceremony, what it means to bring back the warrior society in a modern sense, and how to approach elders respectfully. He also shares his perspective on the importance of fathers, what it's like raising daughters, and how youth can stay on the right track and out of trouble!

Did you know that you can use your breath to do so much more than just live? That you can use it to actually thrive?

In this episode, we're bringing some awareness to a practice that, in our opinion, is not talked about enough. If you've never heard of the term breathwork, or you're just not sure what it is, this is an episode you won't want to miss as we dive into the modalities of the practice and how it can help you in your personal transformation, your healing process, and at the end of the day, even in your relationship.

We're exploring the physical, emotional, and spiritual benefits of breathwork, how to connect with your higher power through your breath, and how you can use breathwork to detoxify your body (and who doesn't need that?)

We also talk about what you can expect from an upcoming Masterclass on breathwork that you don't want to miss because it WILL change your life!
