In this powerful episode, we sit down with returning speaker and long-time friend of Stand Tall, Michael Crossland, backstage at our 2025 Canberra event.
Michael’s story is one of resilience, perspective, and unshakable gratitude in the face of life’s greatest challenges. He shares how choosing positivity over despair has shaped his journey, why gratitude routines anchor his daily life, and how surrounding yourself with the right community can transform your future.
You’ll hear Michael reflect on:
- Why living in the present is the greatest gift we can give ourselves.
- How hardship can become a teacher and a stepping stone to a richer life.
- The importance of perspective and finding meaning even in moments of darkness.
- How gratitude practices and strong routines keep him grounded.
- The role of family, community, and faith in building strength for the journey.
Michael reminds us that true success isn’t measured by achievements, but by being present, kind, and committed to serving others. His words are both humbling and deeply inspiring for anyone navigating difficult seasons.
If you’ve ever wondered how to find hope when life feels overwhelming, this conversation will encourage you to pause, reflect, and rediscover the power of gratitude.
