Too Opinionated Interview: Untapped 60

Your journey to untapped greatness begins here with “Untapped 60.  The popular motivational speakers have shared their impactful stories with audiences across the country. Audiences and critics agree, these guys are the real deal. Their presentation is a testament to the human spirit's capacity to endure, overcome, and find purpose even in the darkest moments. It’s not just a story, it’s real.  “Untapped 60” is a journey of an extraordinary bond between two best friends and a powerful reminder that our potential is far beyond what we perceive, we just need someone to open those doors.  Jarrett Robertson and Michael D.N. Laughlin do just that.

Michael D.N. Laughlin is a full- time career firefighter with Kingston Fire & Rescue who has suffered unimaginable pain bringing both personal and professional challenges, all the while continuing to say, “I will be a firefighter again.”  Twice, Michael returned to his beloved job after serious accidents that could have taken his life at ages 26, and 35, suffering major injuries, first to his left leg and arm. His leg functions because of permanent metal plates, pins and screws.  An even more catastrophic accident broke his back and neck and cost him the loss of his leg above the knee, enough to break anyone’s spirit.  It did not, Michael was focused and diligent, researching prosthetic legs, and becoming physically able to do his job again despite a metal rod in his back and having a highly technical leg to maneuver and adjust to in all his activities.  Michael is the first full-time firefighter in Canada to return to work with an above-the-knee amputation and is Canada's only above-knee full-time firefighter.
