Welcome back to the podcast! 🎙️

What do sled dogs, midlife reinvention, and university leadership training have in common? This week's episode features the fabulous Dr. Robert Forto—a dog musher, academic, and entrepreneur—who turned his midlife “crisis” into an incredible new chapter by going back to school at 44.

From running a 35-dog sled team in the wilds of Alaska to lecturing university students using those very dogs as leadership models, Robert shares his extraordinary journey and the powerful life lessons he’s learned from the trail to the classroom. Whether you're feeling stuck, seeking purpose, or wondering if it’s “too late” to start again, this conversation will inspire you to dream big, dare to fail, and take the leap. 

🎙️ Highlights:

• Why Robert traded a Corvette for a college degree in his 40s
• Lessons from sled dogs that apply to leadership, teamwork, and life
• What it’s like to go back to school surrounded by 20-somethings
• The power of experiential learning and finding your purpose at any age
