S1 Ep11: Michael Cannan

S1 Ep11: Michael Cannan

We would like to advise you that there are suicide references right from the start of this episode that some might find troubling. Please take care when listening.

This week, Paul welcomes his close personal friend Michael Cannan. Michael is the author of Hunting Concrete Lines, which was the finalist for the Best Book Award for The Independent. Formerly a celebrity fitness trainer in Hollywood, Michael is the founder of a behavioural health company in California. There are a lot of shared laughs between great friends but also intense moments of confession and vulnerability. Although now a shining example of health and vitality (check out the episode on YouTube!) Michael recalls vividly how he was once on the verge of cardiac arrest, he shares how he created a completely fabricated life, getting himself stuck into a mountain of lies and describes the profound moment of clarity that marked the beginning of his true recovery journey.

If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction, there are plenty of resources on the Stride Foundation website:
