Welcome To My World

Welcome to the kick off of Season 2. This first episode is a bit of a heavy one however I really think it is a very meaningful topic and it is important that my story be shared with as many people as possible. It’s about my heart attack. And how a simple conversation from over 10+ years ago, had such a major impact on that fateful day. Please have a listen and please share it.

In this episode my guest shares a very interesting story about her life. Its an amazing story which includes a history of alcoholism, drug abuse, and self harm - all while raising a family.

What makes it even more interesting and amazing is Karina has found humour in her life and is able to relay her story in a very surprisingly light hearted way. It’s a story you really need to hear.

In this episode, the youngest guest on this podcast so far, Jeffrey opens up about how a family death (which coincided with the isolation of Covid 19) started a bout of depression and anxiety. This isolation, a busy school schedule led to more physical and mental stress. Jefferey shares with us his experience and how his perseverance enabled him to overcome this tough, difficult time.

Normally I include in my introductions, a brief description on what the call will be about. This one is different. I am going to describe my guest, Kyra Wong.

Kyra can be described as passionate and compassionate. Passionate about her beliefs of promoting equality and greater humanity with her creation of The Magical Unicorn Project.
And compassionate towards others as she sees the good in people, even though they may not see it themselves.

Kyra reminds us that whatever hurdles you may face in life, if you find your purpose and have perseverance, you will overcome them.

In this episode, Gord and I have a heartfelt conversation about how on the surface, things may appear to be just fine. Far too often however, that is not the case. Unfortunately at times, this can also lead to tragedy.

In this very meaningful, yet light hearted conversation, Hali and I talk about how Covid 19 has changed the way we communicate with each other and how our business and business relationships have had to adjust during Covid 19. We talked so much we had to split it into 2 episodes.

In this episode, Brennan and I discuss the importance of talking about mental health, overcoming the stigma around it, and what we all can do to help family and friends that may be experiencing some mental health issues. We also discuss how to support Mental Health initiatives.

Listen to this very inspiring conversation with my dear friend and previous colleague, Darren McKenzie as he shares with us his story about his recovery from alcohol addiction.

To kick off our podcast, in our first episode, I am interviewed by my wife Corinna. During our conversation we recount my car accident that caused my concussion, the effects it had on our family, my recovery, and my desire to help others.
