EPISODE DESCRIPTION

Episode 92: Matt and Taylor are joined by Mike Shaw. Mike is a former professional freestyle skier and Canadian Olympic development coach from Lake Country, BC, who suffered a life-changing spinal cord injury in 2013, leaving him with incomplete paralysis. Against all odds and fuelled by relentless determination and a mindset rooted in gratitude, Mike walked out of the hospital just months later, and in 2020, he published his amazing journey in his memoir, Never Part of the Plan.

 

In the years following his accident, Mike has shared his experience with thousands as a professional speaker and consultant. He works with organizations, companies, and teams, and his goal is straightforward: to better prepare you to manage change, overcome adversity, and choose a mindset that will help you reach your full potential.

 

Today, Mike is focused on being the Founder and a Clinical Counsellor at Gratus Health, an online counselling service based in BC. His physical, mental, and emotional recovery provides a unique perspective he now shares to help others navigate their own peaks and valleys and thrive in the face of adversity.

 

Mike is here to discuss:
→ How his life-changing accident and recovery altered his mindset, using his journey to inspire others, and how he wants to help others moving forward.
→ Gratitudes powerful impact on healing, how you can practice it, and building a foundation of resilience.
→ Positive vs negative thoughts, caught vs taught habits, and playing the comparison game.
