About this listen

In 2011, a freak cycling accident nearly killed Michael O'Brien. Doctors were bearish on Michael's chances to resume normal function — but Michael felt otherwise.

Michael's radical injury prompted a radical shift in perspective. It took numerous surgeries to get his body bike-ready; it took deep emotional labor, including a redefinition of his values, to resume life with peace of mind. And when those values didn't fit with his corporate job (Michael was a VP at a global pharmaceutical company), it meant striking out on his own.

Now a successful entrepreneur twice over, Michael's story illuminates the full spectrum of the entrepreneurial mindset: from chaos and self-doubt to self-belief and growth.
