Journey from Communism to Entrepreneurial Success

Furkhan engages in an insightful discussion with Michael Leung, a local entrepreneur from Calgary. Mike shares his journey from overcoming personal adversities, including a tumultuous childhood, the emotional impact of losing his mother, and his battles with vision impairment. As the CEO of The Flow Group, Mike delves into his inspiration and challenges in creating a new, affordable, and innovative hearing device that aims to transform the hearing aid industry. The conversation explores the importance of resilience, the immigrant experience, and the power of turning personal struggles into entrepreneurial triumphs, all while giving back to his community. Mike is excited to share that their second product, FLO-TruBalance 2.0, has officially launched. Their launch week has been incredible — sales have already exceeded what the first product achieved in six months, which really shows the strong demand. People are genuinely impressed with the innovation, upgrades, and results. The device is helping improve both hearing and social interactions at a fraction of the cost of hearing aids, and many appreciate finally having an option that truly fits their needs and budget. As part of their launch special, they are offering 1 10% discount—an excellent opportunity to experience the best assistive hearing device on the market.
