After a decade of burnout in New Zealand, a home invasion served as the final straw that led her and her husband to move to the prairies sight-unseen.

Just the reality of shifting from reacting to life to taking responsibility for it.We also get into what it means to carry your roots publicly, how culture shapes confidence, and how success eventually turns into service.

| 2/11/26 | ![]() Rob McLeod: Starting Late, Failing Often, and Staying With It | Ep 189 | In this episode of The Calgary Sessions, I sit down with Rob McLeod, also known as Frisbee Rob.Rob didn’t find his path early. He didn’t discover frisbee until after high school, and long before it became his work, teaching and helping others were already part of who he was. We talk about what it’s like to grow into something over time, without a clear plan or early certainty.Rob also opens up about losing his mom at 18, and how that kind of loss doesn’t always show up as a dramatic turning point. Sometimes it quietly shapes how deeply someone commits to their work, and how they define success for themselves.We spend time on failure too. Not as a lesson, but as a reality. Rob shares what it means to attempt something again and again without immediate results, and how repetition, patience, and self-awareness matter more than talent or recognition.This conversation also touches on the gap between visibility and value. World records and attention don’t always translate into stability, and Rob reflects honestly on what it takes to build something that lasts. At its core, this episode is about starting later than expected, questioning your own motivations, and choosing to play the long game.Connect with ”Frisbee Rob” McLeod:WebsiteInstagramLinkedInYouTubeConnect with Jeff HumphreysWebsiteInstagramTikTokLinkedInPodcast Location & Production:Off Set Studios | — | ||||||

The kind that come from taking the work seriously, whether you are carrying someone’s legal problem or stepping on stage with a tradition that has real history behind it.

He shares how restaurant work led him into tattoo shops, what it was like to learn the craft by watching rather than being taught, and how tattooing has changed over the years.We talk about opening and running a shop, the emotional weight that comes with client-facing work, and the kind of conversations that happen in a tattoo chair.

| 1/14/26 | ![]() Shawn Freeman: Building Businesses That Last on Relationships | Some businesses grow fast and disappear. Others last through exits, downturns, and restarts.In this episode, Shawn Freeman talks about why relationships are the real structure holding a business together. Not as a value statement, but as something tested through building companies, selling one, stepping away, and starting again.The conversation moves through how trust compounds quietly over time, why repeated friction is often a warning rather than a challenge, and how founders learn to make decisions without forcing outcomes. Shawn shares how confidence, energy, and alignment show up in very practical ways, even for leaders who think analytically.Rather than focusing on tactics or growth strategies, this episode sits with how people think once they’ve seen businesses succeed and fail up close. It’s a reflection on why people follow people, why impact outlasts metrics, and why the businesses that endure are usually built on relationships long before they are built on plans.Connect with our guest, Shawn Freeman:WebsiteLinkedInConnect with Jeff HumphreysWebsiteInstagramTikTokLinkedInPodcast Location & Production:Off Set Studios | — | ||||||
| 1/7/26 | ![]() Dr. Laura: Fear, Risk, and Trusting the Next Step Without Guarantees | Fear shows up quietly. It shapes how we make decisions, how we measure progress, and how long we stay in situations that no longer feel right.In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Laura Hambley Lovett, an organizational psychologist, researcher, and author, to talk about what happens when logic, effort, and planning stop being enough on their own.We explore why life can start to feel like a constant gap, where the horizon keeps moving and progress never quite feels satisfying. Why comparison, noise, and fear distort how we see ourselves and our work. And why intentionally looking back at what you’ve already built is often the missing piece for clarity and fulfillment.Dr. Laura also shares how trust, intention, and timing play a role in moving forward when certainty isn’t available. Not as blind optimism, but as a grounded way of taking the next step with purpose, support, and self-awareness. We talk about fear and risk, entrepreneurship and mindset, and the difference between pushing harder and aligning your energy with work that actually adds value.The conversation also moves into leadership and systems. Why toxic workplaces often persist through avoidance and silence. What compassionate leadership actually looks like in practice. And why honest, difficult conversations are essential for healthy teams and long-term trust.This is a thoughtful, practical conversation about navigating uncertainty, making grounded decisions without guarantees, and learning how to move forward when fear tries to keep you still.Connect with our guest, Dr. Laura:WebsiteInstagramLinkedInConnect with Jeff HumphreysWebsiteInstagramTikTokLinkedInPodcast Location & Production:Off Set Studios | — | ||||||
| 12/17/25 | ![]() Michael Chiasson: Carrying On Without Knowing What Comes Next | Life doesn’t usually offer clarity when you need it.In this episode, reflects on what it means to keep moving forward through uncertainty. From early responsibility and family instability to becoming a husband, father, and leader while still figuring things out, his story unfolds without clean timelines or clear answers.Michael is a Canadian speaker, author, and founder whose work has grown out of lived experience rather than strategy. This conversation explores presence without control, responsibility before readiness, and how meaning often shows up later than the moments that shape us. It’s a grounded look at continuing on, not because you’re certain, but because life keeps going.Connect with our guest, Michael Chiasson:WebsiteInstagramLinkedInFollow Jeff HumphreysWebsiteInstagramTikTokLinkedInPodcast Location & Production:Off Set Studios | — | ||||||
