A WAYFINDER’S GUIDE TO LIFE
with Mike Brcic
A Wayfinder’s Guide to Life is a podcast and field guide for midlife entrepreneurs standing at the crossroads of outward success and inner yearning.
Through intimate stories from a life of global exploration, candid reflections from the entrepreneurial journey, and the timeless wisdom of diverse cultures, host Mike Brcic offers a poetic and practical compass for entrepreneurs leaders, and soul-seekers ready to find their true path.
Here, business is not separate from soul, leadership flows from deep inner alignment, and life itself becomes a pilgrimage of connection: to self, to others, to the natural world, and to the wild, uncharted, and often hidden rhythms within.
If you're longing to move beyond achievement into authentic, vibrant living, this is your map.
