Let’s celebrate the spirit of Helen Keller. Her birthday is June 27, 1880. She lived as a deaf blind person. She did more than communicate with these obstacles, she also had to LEARN how to communicate - which had to have been a gigantic mountain to climb. This quote is from her: ‘Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all’

Two things to discuss -

1. Happy Fathers Day on Sunday to all of the fathers out there, including (pictured here with me), Manny from Manny’s Barbershop as well as all former guests of my podcast (who are fathers) Dr Ricky Manhas Manhas Medical Scott from Russell Prosthetics Ltd and Marco Pasqua.
2. Got my summer haircut today at Manny’s. This fantastic place is located at: 2929 St. Johns St, Port Moody.
Just ask for the ‘Manny Cut’ as he has been my exclusive barber for many years. Also pictured, his son Adam, missing is the other son Daniel.
Oops, forgot to add a Dad, my good buddy Innocent Ali !

I have a great conversation with Michelle Hewitt, Board Chair of Disability without Poverty. As a member of the disabled community herself, Michelle is a great example of advocacy, resilience and determination to make a difference in getting the word out in improving the lives of the disabled.
