This is The Do It For Yourself Podcast.  Each week I sit down with someone who is doing it for themselves and chasing a dream they just couldn’t suppress.  This is often speakers, entrepreneurs, or athletes.  They all share one thing in common, they are overcoming challenges and never giving up.  Someone who is Doing It For Themselves is not selfish in their pursuit, they are simply chasing a dream or working towards a goal because it is something THEY want to do.  They are not forging down a path because society or someone is telling them it’s what they should be doing. This week I have a chance to sit down with Brian Smuda, the man behind Season Pass Sales and The Haircut Book.  Brian was a sufferer of Tourette's Syndrome.  When Brian was getting ready to graduate college and head into the real world he realized that he did not want to be in the workforce and have these ticks anymore so he began medication that would hopefully help with them.  Unfortunately, these medications did not help and they only made matters worse for him.  This sent Brian on a dark path which eventually led to him being admitted to a psych ward.  Brian tried just about everything he could to get back to normal and he eventually found a medication that worked wonders for him.  Until that medication was pulled off of the market and he was not allowed to use it anymore.   Brian was always a fighter though and determined to figure out a solution to his situation.  Brian learned of a surgery that would potentially help him.  This included having a battery pack implanted in his chest that would be connected to electrodes implanted in his brain.  Brian knew, even given the risk, that this was his only choice.   Brian went through with the surgery and has now regained his life.  He is back on the mountain ski and enjoying the freedom that he was once longing for. I hope you enjoy this conversation with Brian!   Season Pass Sales Season Pass Sales Insta The Haircut Book Insta Brian's Website Do It For Yourself Instagram
