How to be a True Authentic Version of Yourself

Cameron Neale met Michael Holden in Fiji in 2024. Cameron's curiosity draws Michael to reveal more about his transformation after surviving cancer, spinal surgery, and the grind of corporate America.

Michael took a leap of faith, flying across the world to Fiji for a total reset. That experience changed everything—his mindset, faith, career, and even his approach to health and performance.

Whether it’s building strength, pushing past limits, or rethinking what’s possible, this conversation dives deep into what being authentic truly means, and taking the bold risks that lead to real breakthroughs.

In-Depth Discussion with James Rosseau

The Woman Who Saved Us All

In this moving and intimate podcast presented by Storykeep with Jamie Yuenger, Michael pays tribute to his mother—a woman of extraordinary strength, sacrifice, and compassion. Born in southern India, she left behind a life of rural hardship to become a pioneering nurse and midwife, ultimately immigrating to the U.S. during the “brain drain” of the late 1960s.

Her story is one of relentless devotion: to her patients, her faith, and most of all, her family.

Michael shares powerful memories of how his mother championed him as a misunderstood child, supported his daughter through a life-threatening epilepsy diagnosis, and stood by him through spinal surgery and cancer.

Their bond is spiritual, generational, and alive in every story he tells.
