We are Greg and Whitney Boyd, creators of the UNBLOCK Yourself program and podcast, and the Waypoint Intentional Living Retreat. We’re also former corporate world hustlers who believe life is way too short to live on autopilot. We think it is wild that people are not sprinting toward work and lives that actually light them up. But we get it. We’ve been there too. Most people are stuck or at least feel that way. That’s where this podcast comes in. Every other Thursday, we talk to people who got UNBLOCKED. You'll hear stories about finding clarity, career paths, career pivots and living with intention. Our guests tell us how they realized something had to change, made bold moves, and built lives that feel more aligned, more alive, and more intentional. We’ll share some of our own stories too, because we’re right here, figuring it out like everyone else. Some guests you’ll recognize. Others you will meet for the first time. But all of them will help you take the next right step toward a life that feels authentically yours. One that is off autopilot and intentionally lived.Copyright 2025 マネジメント・リーダーシップ リーダーシップ 個人的成功 出世 就職活動 経済学 自己啓発

    Lessons From What To Make Of A Life by Jim Collins
    2026/08/27
    If you’ve listened to the podcast lately, you’ve probably heard us mention What to Make of a Life by Jim Collins.We’ve talked about this book A LOT. Or, more accurately, Greg has talked about this book a lot. So we figured it was finally time to dedicate an episode to it.In this conversation, we unpack three of the biggest ideas from the book: cliffs, fog, and encodings.We start with cliffs. The moments in life that change the direction you were heading. A career change, a loss, retirement, a move, or something completely unexpected. Some cliffs we see coming and others we don’t, but they create a before and after in our lives.Then comes fog. That uncertain period after a cliff when the life you knew has changed, but you haven’t quite figured out what comes next. We talk about why fog is a natural part of change and why some periods of it last much longer than others.But the idea we spend the most time on is encodings.Collins describes encodings as the unique combination of natural gifts, capabilities, and attributes we’re each born with. When the way we’re living allows us to use those encodings, we’re “in frame.” We feel energized, engaged, and more like ourselves. When we spend too much of our lives outside of them, we can start to languish.We also get into:why being good at something doesn’t necessarily mean you’re encoded for itwhy your encodings can only really be discovered through action and trying new thingswhat it means to be “in frame” versus “out of frame”how the frame around our lives changes, even when our encodings don’tthe idea of “flipping the arrow of money”and how understanding what energizes you can help you build a life with more of itThis isn’t about quitting your job, blowing up your life, or turning everything you love into a career. It’s about understanding yourself a little better and asking whether the life you’re building gives you enough opportunities to use the things that are already inside you.There’s a reason this book keeps finding its way into our conversations.We hope you enjoy this one.EPISODE LINKS & REFERENCESWhat to Make of a Life by Jim CollinsJim Collins — Official WebsiteDesigning Your Life by Bill Burnett & Dave Evans“There’s a Name for the Blah You’re Feeling: It’s Called Languishing” by Adam GrantWe’d love to connect with you.

  • Luke Anderson on Mountain Biking, Choice and Building an Accessible World

    Luke Anderson on Mountain Biking, Choice and Building an Accessible World
    2026/08/13

    Long before he was the co-founder of StopGap, Luke Anderson was the guy at Boyd Sports blasting Nirvana from the back of the shop, the cool older employee at the store owned by Greg’s dad, and someone who inspired a young Greg to get on a mountain bike in the first place.

    This episode is as much a reunion as it is an interview.


    In 2011, that choice helped lead to the creation of StopGap, an organization that builds brightly coloured ramps and raises awareness about the importance of accessibility. What started with 13 business owners in Toronto’s Junction neighbourhood has since grown into a movement reaching communities all over Canada.


    This is a conversation about resilience, choice, accessibility, and what can happen when we take the hardest parts of our story and use them to make things better for someone else.


    In this episode, we talk about:

    • Growing up in Stouffville and working at Boyd Sports

    • Studying civil engineering and falling in love with the West Coast

    • The 2002 mountain biking crash that led to Luke’s spinal cord injury

    • Grief, loss, and learning to navigate a very different way of life

    • Hitting literal barriers as a wheelchair user in downtown Toronto

    • Co-founding StopGap with Michael Hopkins in 2011

    • Why accessible design benefits everyone

    • Choosing action over frustration

    • Meeting Rampman, StopGap’s colourful mascot

    • How to get involved with StopGap’s mission


    We laughed, we got emotional, and we walked away with a whole new appreciation for how much of our world still isn’t built with everyone in mind, and how much can happen when one person decides to do something about it.

  • Nancy Corcoran: Building Whispering Springs and Turning Pain Into Purpose

    Nancy Corcoran: Building Whispering Springs and Turning Pain Into Purpose
    2026/07/30
    Nancy Corcoran has never been afraid to chase an adventure.Years ago, she and her husband John sold their dream home, bought a sailboat, and spent the next twelve years splitting their time between the Bahamas and a 200-acre property in rural Ontario. That property would eventually become Whispering Springs Wilderness Retreat, one of Canada's most unique glamping destinations and the place where we now host our annual Waypoint Retreat.But this conversation is about much more than building a beautiful business.Nancy shares the heartbreaking story of her granddaughter, Ayla, who suffered a severe brain injury at birth, forever changing the course of their family's life. Rather than allowing tragedy to define them, Nancy and their family have dedicated themselves to creating hope for other families through Camp Moonlight, the We Love Joy Foundation, and Ask Ayla—the world's first AI companion built from the lived experience of raising a child with cerebral palsy.It's a conversation about adventure, entrepreneurship, grief, resilience, advocacy, and the incredible things that can happen when you choose to turn pain into purpose.In this episode, we discuss:Why Nancy and John sold everything to buy a sailboat and chase adventureThe story behind building Whispering Springs Wilderness RetreatCreating spaces that help people disconnect, reconnect, and slow downWhy entrepreneurs often need to trust intuition more than certaintyThe life-changing birth of Nancy's granddaughter, AylaWhat it's really like for families navigating a birth injury and cerebral palsy diagnosisHow Camp Moonlight is creating community for families raising children with disabilitiesThe We Love Joy Foundation and its mission to spread kindness, empathy, and inclusionThe creation of Ask Ayla, the world's first AI companion built from lived experienceHow AI can transform caregiving and support families around the worldWhy Nancy believes our greatest pain can become our greatest purposeThe importance of creating a more compassionate and inclusive world for children with disabilitiesEnjoy this conversation with Nancy Corcoran.

The correct statistic is 1 in 400 births.
