Old news. Bad news. Fake news. Sometimes you want to shut down and get no news at all! I aim to change that by focusing on good people doing good works. I visit with artists, educators, civic & spiritual leaders, musicians, business owners, students, volunteers, and everyday citizens who are using their creativity, resources, and talents to bring hope, happiness, and goodness to their corner of the world.

Ep. 48 - The Turn of the Wheel Ft. Mike Brignac - Find the Good News with Oran Parker

I have always been attracted to stories of transformation and enlightenment. A man is one way today, then something critical shifts in his life, and he wakes up as a new man. It had been years since I had seen Mike Brignac, but when he came to visit me on Find the Good News it was clear that I was talking with a man that had come out of a chrysalis. Mike spoke to me with an honesty that I’ve come to appreciate from my guests. He was fearless and truthful in the way he recounted his days as a local media personality. He relentlessly dissected and described the man he was, someone that he painted as filled with ego and self-centered ways. In one of the most humble and graceful testimonies I’ve ever heard, Mike described his shift away from media, local fame, and his decent. After an unfortunate accident, Mike entered a seven-year sentence of declining health which left him debilitated and dependent on others for his care. It was in this state—bed-ridden and imprisoned within his own body—that Mike Brignac changed his mind. He discovered that the healing of his body, mind, and spirit lay within the power of his imagination. Only one word could describe what came next—a miracle. Mike’s story will challenge the logical thinker, the supernatural denier, a hardened unbelieving heart, or a mind that disregards anything fantastic as fiction. Maybe it will challenge you. Regardless, I would encourage you to listen to Mike’s story with an open mind and heart. Listen to every word. Perhaps he has been where you have been, or to places you have yet to go. Maybe you have your cocoon yet to weave, or perhaps you are just emerging from your chrysalis. My conversation with Mike Brignac reminded me—yet again—that we all have the potential to change. Sometimes life is like a wheel spinning around us, out of control, but the good news is that sometimes— through our imaginative thinking—we can turn the wheel ourselves to a better way.
