Maps Are Dead is a podcast about navigating life when the old plans stop working. Hosted by Mike Dauphinee, this series is a raw, real, and often funny conversation with people learning to move forward without a clear path. It’s not about success formulas or five-year plans. It’s about inner maps—CliftonStrengths, courage, and the grit it takes to keep going when certainty disappears. Mike and his guests explore identity, leadership, parenting, purpose, and the moments that shake our lives loose.
