  • Ep.92 - Alain

    Alain est coach relationnel (https://alainsimard.com/ & https://www.facebook.com/ChoisirSaVie/), mais avant de s'engager dans cette vocation, il a, lui même, passer par toute sorte d'obstacles et de détours toujours dans le but de trouver l'affection, l'amour. Ce que j'ai l'impression qu'il avait oublié pendant un bon moment de sa vie, c'est qu'on ne peut donner à l'autre, ce que longtemps il ne se donnait pas à lui-même. Ce fût mon premier enregistrement "déconfiner": il est venu me visiter au studio pour enregistrer et j'ai vraiment aimé découvrir Alain. Je vous souhaite le même plaisir à entendre sa transformation.

  • Ep.91 - Amber

    In her own words, I present you Amber. I appreciated this conversation so much. She's quite an inspirational individual. 

    Amber Kierra lost 90% of her eyesight growing up and has learned to use courage to overcome fear and navigate obstacles of any kind. She believes in a world where we are not held back by our circumstances rather we live our lives rooted in purpose with boldness and courage. This belief has instilled an immense drive to empower others to take the next step in making their wildest dreams come true. Through speaking on stages and one-on-one coaching, she is truly transforming leaders into bold world changers.

    Amber is confident that when people are fully walking in their calling, the world is being changed for the better. When you meet Amber, you’ll feel the infectious joy that overflows from her innermost being and experience the impressive confidence and boldness that she seeks to impart to others. People would describe Amber as “a shot of expresso” because everyone who has been in her presence leaves energized and ready to take on the world.

  • Ep.89 - Violette

    This week I met with Violette De Ayala: a great human being that makes possible for others what she had wished she'd find more of when she was younger: a true sense of self-identity, roots recognition and blossoming. It was a great conversation that can't wait to share!

    In her own words: 

    Momma to 3 humans, 1 non-human and with Steve for over 27 years! Do I get a prize now?

    I launched my first business at the age of 22 and haven't looked back. 

    As a social and serial entrepreneur with an obsession for business growth, I am seasoned in the rocky road of self-employment and understand the challenges and obstacles women face when creating their own vision of success. My latest passion led me in creating one of fastest growing International Business Organizations for Women [FemCity®].

    I am also the Author of The Self-Guided Guru, Life Lessons for the Everyday Human which is an International Amazon Best Seller Top 50 in the US and Top 10 in Canada for Self-Help and Spirituality.

  • Ep.88 - Joel

    In his own words: "I have a background as first responder, so I am used to high stake environments with tremendous stress. I became a Human Potential Coach because I saw the value in coaching and the discipline, values, and principles that were instilled into me, and I wanted to give that gift back to others. As an Integrative Health Practitioner I understand the value of health and the body, and understand how the body and mind are one. If your body is not functioning properly, there's a chance your mind is not at peak performance either. There is a reason why top business leaders and professional athletes hire specific coaches for specific aspects of their lives: diet, exercise, spirituality, presentation skills, interpersonal communication skills, leadership skills, public speaking, team building, marriage, investing, and more. Top performers understand the importance of guidance and accountability that comes from effective coaching.

    I launched my coaching business and podcast to share the gifts with others and empower them the same way that was provided by me by such amazing influencers."

    Joel is what is known as a Biohacker. There are multiple readings about the subject but I would recommend looking at one of the pioneer of this subject, Dave Asprey: https://blog.daveasprey.com/about-dave-asprey/

  • Ep.84 - Paul

    March 2018….He had it all. Then, he lost it all in a horrible accident on an ordinary winter's day when his car was hit by a train. This reads like the stuff of nightmares in a film.

    In the blink of an eye his life as he knew it was gone.

    Not everyone survived, but someone was born, again. There are no coincidences. How does someone come back from that? In the midst of the destruction, something positive started to grow.

    Paul Rogers' believes that his struggle will be someone else's survival guide. He has used his experiences having sustained a severe TBI and CPTSD to write under the pen name of Kate Summers. The first book in a mini series, “The White Wolf’s Way: A Step-By-Step Guide to Self Compassion” (free on Amazon) was released in February 2020, and it has reached no1 in 3 self-help categories and received the Amazon best seller banner.

    For Paul this is just the start of a journey of self discovery, helping others to discover their own inner strength in the face of adversity and seemingly impossible odds.

    Get Paul’s new book released this Friday 3rd April 2020. “The White Wolf’s Way – Easy Changes for a Better life”. Enjoy I hope you find your White Wolf https://www.amazon.com/Easy-Changes-Better-Life-Mindset-ebook/dp/B086CB44ND

  • Ep.83 - Philippe

    Philippe Vaillancourt, doté de fortes habiletés relationnelles, d’un sens de l’humour charismatique, d’un esprit rassembleur et d’une aisance à aller vers les autres a tout pour se construire une vie académique, sociale, amoureuse, familiale et professionnelle à succès.

    Les réseaux et environnements qu’il fréquente sont ceux de la fête, de l’éternelle adolescence, du loisir en continue. Il se met à consommer occasionnellement de la drogue de façon régulière. Afin de répondre à ses besoins de consommation, il commet des vols et s’imprègne de la criminalité.

    À l’âge de 44 ans, il compte 24 ans de sentence d’emprisonnement dont 17 ans derrière les barreaux. Le milieu carcéral lui aura permis de poursuivre ses activités criminelles, entretenir des liens avec le crime organisé, mais aussi, surtout, recevoir du soutien quant à sa toxicomanie.

    À l’aide de thérapies, Monsieur Vaillancourt parvient à vaincre sa dépendance. Il a maintenant purgé toutes ses peines et est pleinement libérés de ses chaînes qui le liaient aux centres de détention. Homme reconstruit, il souhaite maintenant non seulement être un honnête citoyen, mais un citoyen impliqué auprès de la communauté. Il poursuit l’objectif de sensibiliser les gens aux dangers de la consommation.

  • Ep.82 - Pandemic Lockdown Special #1

    For special times comes special episodes. Here's the english version of my Pandemic special (french equivalent can be found here: https://anchor.fm/coldturkey/episodes/Ep-81---Lockdown-Pandemie-1-ecb33b). For this special, I had Blake, Phillip and Paul sitting with me on Zoom. Unfortunately, there are some audio glitch (damn you Zoom), but I had a blast doing this. I uploaded the raw video version of it on Youtube as well (see my channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgVEX3z-lI82ZPZn7pDW5kA/). This is something that we'll repeat for sure, just to keep updated on the situation and our feeling about it. Thanks everyone for joining in.
