This week on hear me RAW I welcome Michael Crossland. We first met when we shared the stage with Sir Richard Branson in 2019 and his story moved me immeasurably. We’ve since become firm friends. For this episode all I can say is, go grab yourself a big box of tissues before you start. In the next hour Michael will share his remarkably inspiring story of overcoming extreme adversity to achieve incredible outcomes in both his personal and professional life. Despite and because of spending nearly 1/4 of his life in hospital, Michael’s ability to help shift your mindset, instil perspective and have you determined to become the best version of yourself, will amaze and inspire.
Michael’s story will undoubtedly bring a tear to your eye and a smile to your heart, but above all will teach you the keys to success, the importance of embracing change, and the mindset needed to achieve your goals. Once you have finished this episode, I dare you to go out and do one thing today that scares you. One thing that moves you past your comfort zone. Come on – you’ve got this. So without further ado, let's get started.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
