Water scares many people. Our guest, Mike Shoreman, has conquered this fear. Many people know him as the Unbalanced Paddleboarder. In August, Mike became the first person with disabilities to paddle board across all of the Great Lakes. In this conversation, he talks about why he decided to do this, how crossing the Great Lakes resembles a mental health journey and the pros and cons of being called “inspirational.” He also tries to counsel Meagan through aquatic anxiety.
