In this episode of Off the REKOrd, Gia sits down with Migs Ganzon—author, content creator, copywriting coach, and multi-hyphenate creative—to unpack what it means to live many lives in one lifetime. The catch? Migs is still a 23-year-old engineering student!
Migs takes us through his evolution as a writer, from horror fiction inspired by Stephen King to deeply personal poetry that became a tool for healing. He shares how his early love for magic led to a fascination with psychology, which later shaped his storytelling style—both on the page and in marketing campaigns.
