In this inaugural episode of A Wayfinder’s Guide to Life, host Mike Brcic invites you into the wilderness... both literal and metaphorical. 

Recorded deep in the northern woods of Ontario, this is more than a podcast introduction. It’s a soul call for entrepreneurs and leaders in midlife who’ve climbed the first mountain of success, only to find it strangely silent at the summit.

Mike shares his own story of burnout, quiet reckoning, and the midlife unravelling that led him to create Wayfinders. 

With poetic reflection and grounded honesty, he lays out the themes of this first season, inspired by the Hero’s Journey: the call, the resistance, the descent, and the return. 

You’ll hear about his time with indigenous tribes, the power of silence, the ache of inauthentic living, and the hope that something more honest and alive awaits.

This episode is your trailhead. If you’ve ever felt a quiet longing for a different kind of life, this show is for you.
