About this listen
What happens when a successful entrepreneur’s life changes overnight — and everything you’ve built can no longer protect you?
In this episode of CAMP Conversations, Dayna Conway sits down with Tim Parkes, chief innovator, builder, breaker, and fixer at Maple Leaf Realco, to share his experience of being wrongly convicted in the U.S., sentenced to a maximum-security prison, and spending over two years incarcerated before receiving a full acquittal.
This conversation goes beyond the story itself and into what it truly takes to endure extreme uncertainty, loss of control, and isolation — and how resilience is built moment by moment when the future is unclear.
Tim Parkes is the Founder of Canmark Automotive , Remington Industries, Remington Manufacturing, Remington Global, and the Maple Leaf Realco Development companies
In this conversation, they discuss:
Defining the problem when money and success can’t fix it
Separating emotion from decision-making under extreme stress
How focus and discipline became survival tools
The role of relevance and belonging in resilience
Faith, reflection, and rebuilding after incarceration
Returning to a world filled with noise and overstimulation
Why relationships matter more than status or achievement
