Becoming A High-Performance Coach After 25 Years In The Nightlife Industry w/Johnny Cantiveros EP 308

Johnny has worked in the hospitality industry for over 25 years and was the general manager at some of the best restaurants & bars across western Canada. He met many people along the way and mastered the art of developing connections and creating beautiful experiences. It did come at a cost, however, and it became destructive and damaging for Johnny. The drinking, partying and late nights turned into days. He became stagnant and starved for validation in order to measure his self-worth. In 2018, he discovered Dr. Joe Dispenza’s meditation and yoga practice and had a huge turnaround, using coaching as a way to create deeper experiences. He is now one of 900 Certified High-Performance Coaches, a Rapid Transformational Therapy Practitioner and a Shiva Murti healer. His mission is to create a safe space for one to share the complexity of the human experience and express all spectrums of human emotions. 

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: 

  • [00:08:31] Johnny’s journey through the Hospitality Industry
  • [00:29:58] Reflections of leadership styles that Johnny adopted

🥇WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT LESSON THAT ADVERSITY HAS TAUGHT YOU?🥇

Johnny says, “2020 was about taking a step back and getting back to what is important. What that is to me, more than ever, is the depth of community and depth of relationships.”

Lance Essihos

As an experienced veteran with adversity, Lance has faced some of life's most difficult challenges. Grinding his way through the hockey ranks to traveling the world as a bartender. Through his personal battle with drugs and alcohol for well over a decade, the tragic loss of his brother to suicide followed by the great loss of his father to cancer only a year later, Lance realized he had hit rock bottom. In the darkest of days, he made a promise to himself that he would create a new life, one that would make an impact and inspire the masses, leaving the world in a better place than he found it. Lance has made it his mission to facilitate the message of positive change through adversity and encourage people to see the light through the darkness of life's worst moments.
