Conversations on leadership, reinvention, and the truth behind success.Hosted by Michael Greenwalt.Welcome to Beyond Self-Made. I'm Michael Greenwalt - speaker, author, and someone who's lived more than one life.From poverty to the military, to the cage, to the fireground, to the boardroom and entrepreneurship, I've learned that success isn't about doing it alone - it's about who shows up, who opens doors, and who walks with you when things get hard. This podcast is about leadership under pressure, career reinvention, personal growth, and the power of authentic human connection. These interviews are stories, conversations, and lessons for people building their next chapter - together.
