An Olympic Athlete - banned for anabolic use. A Biker who left the 1% biker world behind. Two men who once lived at full throttle — until 2 strokes brought it all to a halt.

In this raw, unfiltered conversation, I sit down with my friend, Oral O’Gilvie — a Canadian Olympian from the 1992 Barcelona Games — to talk about life before and after our strokes.

We dive into:
🧠 The mindset of a competitor after losing everything
💪 What it means to be an “alpha” after trauma
🙏 How faith, failure, and God’s grace brought us back

This isn’t a medical video. This is real talk — from two survivors who’ve felt broken but refused to stay there.

If you're recovering from a stroke or caring for someone who is, this is the conversation you need to hear.
