What happens when a pro athlete turned fitness leader faces the fight of his life? Mike Laird’s journey is a raw, powerful story of survival, resilience, and purpose. After years of building fitness businesses and mentoring trainers, Mike’s life changed with a shocking diagnosis: a rare appendix cancer. Following a grueling 10-hour surgery and months of recovery, he emerged with a scar that tells a bigger story—one of strength, perspective, and living ā€œbuilt for more.ā€

In this conversation, Joey Pinz explores how Mike turned adversity into a mission to help others reclaim their health and mindset. From overcoming physical limitations to teaching trainers how to build meaningful careers, Mike’s story proves that success isn’t just measured by fitness goals—it’s measured by impact.

✨ Highlights:

  • šŸ‹ļøā€ā™‚ļø Why personalized training beats one-size-fits-all fitness plans
  • šŸ’” The mindset shift that helped Mike battle cancer and rebuild his life
  • šŸ‘Øā€šŸ‘©ā€šŸ‘§ā€šŸ‘§ How family, faith, and legacy drive lasting motivation

Mike reminds us: your body doesn’t lie—listen to it, fuel it, and use every challenge as a springboard for growth.
