Her name is synonymous with authenticity, warmth, kindness, genuine heart, and all around uplifting attitude.
On this exciting episode, I welcome the delightful and spirited Fabiola Coupet, also known among familiar circles as just 'Bibi' for short.
For the past few years, Bibi has been the entertaining voice and incredible host of the 'BibiNètAlKole' afternoon-drive radio show, on Haiti's highly-rated RadioOne 90.1FM.
She's definitely a fresh and enlightening personality, filled with good humor and thoughtful wisdom. Something that only a rather singular outlook on life can bring. Her Instagram feed is indeed regular dose of pep that one is happy to get everyday.
I was honoured to have her on, even though she and I had not formally met her up until this very recording.

On this solo episode, I have a moment of humility & acceptance. In proper hindsight, I realize 'Letting Go' is easier said than done in some instances. Can't blame me for being human.
Enjoy.

On this episode, I welcome a relentless entrepreneur and dedicated individual Bernhard Poitevien, founder and visionary at the helm of the International Association of Moringa.
Excited is the word as Bernhard has this infectious sense of 'We'll get this done' that has resonated with me in regards to the sheer patience and resilience he's had to put forward to stay true to his path and vision.
A man of audacity, his story and it's impactful chapters - which made for our very first 2-part episode - was a truly remarkable one.
With a love for his native country, Haiti, and a knowledgeable sense of duty towards its economic and agricultural sustainability, I definitely learned a lot on this one., and hopefully, so will you.

On this incredible episode, I welcome family man, motivational speaker, OCR athlete Kacey McCallister.I've been part of the Spartan Race community for a couple of years now so I'm always keeping up with little stories and personal accounts of individual victories. And it's on one of those random scrolls on Instagram that I was both amazed and humbled at the individual that the Spartan Race had featured on their page.I had to reach out. I had to show some camaraderie. If only to let this gentleman know how truly inspiring his achievement was to me.
In a time where some of us seem to struggle to find the motivation to just get out of bed in the morning, I got to meet and hear a guy who obviously does not let his circumstances, but rather his will and determination, disctate his incredible possibilities. Let's all RISE UP!

On this solo episode, I take a second and take a breather. A brief moment of vulnerability, really. Sometimes, you have to admit to yourself that you can't do it all. Thankfully, the people that matter have their own way of showing you they're not holding it against you. Enjoy.

On this episode, I welcome Richard Lecoin - photographer, model, entrepreneur, husband, father...and many other hats that I myself got to discover from this very impactful conversation.
It's one of those truly humbling circumstances where you come out the other end of a great exchange and the only word that can even closely describe it is "Wow".
I'll be the first to admit that I did not have much of a laid-out plan as far as this interview was concerned. But in no way did this affect the genuinely inspiring message that Richard had to share.
With grace and vulnerability, Richard shares his story of resilience, audacity, patience, loss, self affirmation and humility. I had to sit back and reflect on this one even after the mic was cut off. Grab a seat and open your hearts 'cause this one is an amazing ride.
A man of character and a truly outstanding individual, my thanks to Richard for his openness and availability for this recording.
