I talk to professional peak and performance coach and hypnotist Wayne Lee. For over 25 years, Wayne has been one of North America’s premier corporate presenters and entertainers. He has helped people from over 6000 organizations and various walks of life develop the subconscious mindset that allows them to perform at a high level no matter what challenges they face.We talk about being empowered, how he built his shows over time, and how he moved into creating a service and entertainment brand that would help businesses and their employees succeed. He grew a digital online coaching program when his live events were forced to stop due to the pandemic, but he's back on stage where he feels most alive. To him, it's all about "stage time baby".

In this episode, I chat with Allan Mitchell (aka Lowetide) of The Athletic, TSN 1260, and the author of a new book called On the Clock: Edmonton Oilers: Behind the Scenes with the Edmonton Oilers at the NHL Draft. We discuss his journey in the content creation space and chat about the process behind his newly-released book. He started with an idea for a blog about hockey, married his passion for baseball into it, grew the blog to amazing levels of success, then turned all of that into a popular radio show, a lucrative contract with The Athletic, and a new book. His story just goes to show that if you have a passion for a niche topic, write about what you love, listen to your audience and time what you're creating with intent, the sky is the limit for what you can achieve.
