Ever find yourself wondering how to break free from the norms and expectations of life? Yearning to escape from your comfort zone to pursue your dreams? Pull up a chair and join us for an eye-opening conversation with our guest, Mike Rokoski, a real-life example of an individual who dared to chart his own path and transform his life. 

From his early days in Pennsylvania to his decision to move to Wilmington, North Carolina, Mike defied the blue-collar path his family had tread and instead ventured into the world of real estate development, all while savoring a good small batch whiskey. His journey is a testament to the power of personal growth and the impact of stepping out of one's comfort zone. Mike doesn't just recount his journey, but digs deep into the concept of unrealized potential and the significant role it has played in shaping his life. We all have it, but do we recognize it? More importantly, do we utilize it?

As we follow Mike's narrative, we also explore the topic of overcoming limitations and the power of embracing challenges. We delve into an intriguing study on ownership and how our perceived flaws can actually be our greatest strengths. We round off our chat with Mike with a look at defining personal success, embracing challenges and following your dreams. So sit back, be prepared to question your own path, and join us on this transformative journey with Mike Rokoski.
