In this episode of Grounded in the Noise, Shaun sits down with Kyal Neil Currant — a trauma-informed facilitator, transformational coach, and powerful voice for resilience.
Born with Muscular Dystrophy and Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, Kyal’s story is one of radical acceptance and self-leadership. From navigating isolation and loss to discovering breathwork and mentorship, he’s learned to transform pain into purpose — and to lead from presence, not perfection.
This conversation dives deep into embodiment, healing, and what it really means to live grounded when life tests your limits.
“I turned my pain into purpose.”
“I felt so alone within.”
“Don’t diss my ability.”
