    Antonio Lennert has surfed many waves whether off the coast of his native Brazil or in the frigid Great Lakes of Canada. Antonio channeled his passion for riding waves into a successful surf school with his husband, Lucas. Sadly, tragedy struck just before Antonio’s 40th birthday when his partner passed away to cancer. Antonio's profound loss took him on an odyssey of deep healing, self-discovery and transformation that inspired a new purpose. With an interdisciplinary background ranging from business to neuroscience, Antonio combines his academic training with his lived experiences as a professional leadership coach. In this touching interview, Antonio opens up about his journey through grief and the ebb and flow of life.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (or ALS) affects more than 200,000 people globally. In Canada alone, approximately 4000 people live with this disease. Also known as Lou Gehrig’s or motor neuron disease, ALS is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that disrupts the transmission of brain signals to muscles throughout the body, rendering them inactive over time. While there is no cure for ALS, there is promising research and emerging treatments to unlock this disease and improve the quality of life for people with this terminal condition. With the help of voice cloning technology, Allen Braude opens up about his life with ALS and shares his message of hope.
