In Episode Two, we sit down with Michael to talk about his book, The Reluctant Senpai: The Art of Ending Well. At 55, after a scary blood pressure spike that nearly cost him all vision in one eye, he stepped onto the mat and began training in martial arts. We explore his journey toward earning his black belt, embracing the struggle, and learning to live and finish well. It’s honest, inspiring, and full of real-life lessons.
