Episode Description
This is episode 13 of A Magnificent Mind, and today our guest is the warmhearted and powerful Shenan Charania. In this episode, Shenan shares how being bullied drove him into criminal activities, drugs and alcohol abuse, and how one insight that he received while hiding in a bush, caused him to change his life. He tells us about his wish to own a Tim Hortons, and how he went about this extremely challenging adventure. Shenan also talks about success and coaching and the power of love, and how he gives back to the community by helping (young) gang members transform their lives. Be inspired by this last episode (for now) of A Magnificent Mind!
