Bonus Episode: Aaron Lazar & Dr. Michael Gervais on the Mastery of Self and the Journey to Reverse ALS | Impossible Dreams Podcast

Welcome to a special Monday episode on the Finding Mastery channel.

Every once in a while, we come across a story or a person that moves us in a profound way — and this is one of those moments.

Recently, I was invited by Aaron Lazar to join him on his new podcast, Impossible Dreams. Aaron is an incredible human — a Broadway and television actor, singer, and storyteller — who’s facing ALS with extraordinary courage, humor, and grace. He’s also pushing toward an almost unthinkable goal: to become the 64th person on record to ever reverse symptoms from ALS.

I enjoyed the conversation so much that I knew I wanted to share it with you here on Finding Mastery — to raise awareness, and to honor Aaron’s message about purpose, connection, and resilience in the face of life’s hardest challenges.

Takeaways from this episode:

  • Why mastery of self — not just mastery of craft — changes the way we meet adversity.
  • How awareness, self-talk, and gratitude can shift what’s possible in any moment.
  • What it means to move from “my team” to “the team.”
  • How purpose and love become anchors when life feels uncertain.
  • The small, daily practices that help us stay grounded, connected, and alive to what matters most.


Enjoy this conversation with Aaron and me, and let it remind you of the strength that lives inside all of us, even in the storm.
