Maintaining a Mindset of Abundance Despite All Odds - Mikhail Wolf Shearman Artwork

Another Way with Dani

Hi, I'm Dani! I love people and I love talking about the human experience. I'm a seeker and a connector. From a very young age I've believed in the power of discourse and critical thinking - and that "because this is how we've always done it" is not a valid reason to keep doing things a certain way.

In every episode I sit down with a different guest (or guests) and dive into how they are challenging the status quo and choosing unconventional paths in life. Together, we explore their insights, experiences, and stories around specific themes. The mission is to open our hearts and minds so we can consciously explore ways to live more authentically, intentionally, and on purpose. And hopefully break through outdated paradigms despite what we've been told or taught.

Maintaining a Mindset of Abundance Despite All Odds - Mikhail Wolf Shearman

April 02, 2025 • Dani O'Brien Buckley • Episode 21

In 2022 at the age of 33 years old, Mikhail Wolf Shearman was in a life-changing motorcycle accident, that eventually led to the amputation of his entire right arm and chronic nerve damage and pain that he continues to deal with to this day. His life was turned upside down but he's chosen a path of abundance and living life to the fullest.

In this episode we get into not only the details of this accident and how it has impacted him and his outlook on life, but we also dive into his life story and the many ways he's turned tragedy and trauma into opportunity and healing. This includes topics ranging from drug use both medicinally and recreationally, death of a parent (as a teenager), navigating grief, addiction, and so much more!

Wolf has one of the most contagious and inspiring outlooks on life that I've encountered and it was a true pleasure having this conversation with him - especially the many (many!) similarities we found along the way in our life journeys and experiences.
