#7: Michael Balchan

In this episode I have a personal conversation with the powerful Michael Balchan. Michael is a Harvard-educated commodity trader and film producer turned executive coach, peak-performance consultant, and author. He supports leaders and teams in maximizing their potential, both personally and professionally, through custom-tailored programs that combine the most powerful methods and modalities of personal growth, psychology, performance science, physiology, wellness, and the world’s spiritual and wisdom traditions.

 

Michael's a self-described "spiritual prankster" who has traveled to 6 of the 7 continents (Antartica's next), studying life and culture as it manifests around the globe. He recently committed to supporting 5% of the world's population in developing a mindfulness practice, and is working towards creating a more enlightened, empowered, and continued future for humanity. All while having shit-loads of fun in the process.

 

In this conversation we discuss Michael's journey from Harvard to Options trading, how he was eventually fired from that job and why he wrote his book "Meditation: What, Why and How to Meditate.
