Delusional! Big Dreams, Real Stories with Michelle Coyle
Delusional! Big Dreams, Real Stories with Michelle Coyle (formerly known as Seekers and Shifters) is a podcast about the blurry line between dreaming big and losing your mind. (Spoiler: anyone who has ever achieved anything probably did a little of both.)
We sit down with founders, creatives, and visionaries who bet on themselves—often when no one else would. These are the behind-the-scenes stories of people who went for it anyway. The goal? To remind you that the path to something extraordinary almost always looks “delusional” at the start.

The Power of Routine
In this empowering episode of Seekers & Shifters, Michelle sits down with her old friend Thomas JT Marbury to navigate the journey of personal growth and leadership. JT, a retired military officer with over two decades of experience, shares invaluable insights on how to rise from the depths of life's challenges with resilience and determination. He opens up about his struggles with depression, anxiety, and the transformative power of self-care and discipline. As JT discusses his journey, he sheds light on the crucial role of habits in achieving success, the importance of men embracing vulnerability, and the profound impact of supportive leadership.
Join us as we explore the path to becoming better versions of ourselves, learn to control what we can, and ultimately, discover the strength in embracing our authentic selves. Whether you're at rock bottom or simply seeking ways to elevate your life, this episode promises to inspire and guide you toward a brighter tomorrow.
