WELCOME to the Midweek Motivation Podcast! A show where I have the privilege to interview interesting and inspiring people and how they have overcome barriers, limiting beliefs and challenges in life through health and fitness.

In this episode, I have catch up with my friend Michael E. Holden, who I met in Fiji in 2024. Mike is a high performance coach and best selling author, who achieved incredible success in his two-decade career in wealth management and being a former Fortune 500 executive.

However this episode is not just about finance - it's about transformation After surviving cancer, spinal surgery, and the grind of corporate America, Michael took a leap of faith, flying across the world to Fiji for a total reset. That experience changed everything—his mindset, his faith, his career, and even his approach to health and performance. He shifted to an animal-based diet, optimized his fitness, and now coaches leaders on mastering their Authenticity Quotient (AQ)—a concept that blends peak performance, mental resilience, and deep personal alignment.

Whether it’s building strength, pushing past limits, or rethinking what’s possible, today’s conversation is going to dive deep into mindset, physical transformation, what being authentic truely means, and taking the bold risks that lead to real breakthroughs.
