Der stoische Pirat

A life like a roller coaster ride. From the gutter to his own school. An interview with the energetic and upbeat Maury Power, founder of the "Big Dreams Club" in Moncton/Canada.

Show Notes

Maury Power is the founder and owner of the "Big Dreams Club" in the greater Moncton/New Brunswick area in Canada.

The "Big Dreams Club" is located in an old school house in Lower Coverdale about 10 minutes by car south of Moncton. A wide variety of activities are offered there: From yoga classes, fitness training, mental coaching, kinesiology to digital marketing training. The school building is also used as a really cool Air B'n'B.

The fact that someone buys an old schoolhouse, restores it himself and uses it to implement his ideas is already something special. But Maury Power's life story is even crazier.

Maury lived in the gutter, was an alcoholic and spent time in prison. When their house in British Columbia burned down a few years ago, Maury and his family were left with nothing.

How the house painter, who never had any cash reserves, managed to raise the money to start a new life with his family and to pay in full for the large vacant schoolhouse on the other side of Canada in a very short time is an exciting and inspiring story.

What is Der stoische Pirat?

Der stoische Pirat ist auf der Suche nach dem Schatz des guten Lebens. Er trifft auf seiner Reise auf philosophische, psychologische und politische Fragen. Die Absicht der stoischen Piraten ist es zum kritischen Nachdenken anzuregen und zu mehr Menschlichkeit, Grossmütigkeit und Zivilcourage zu motivieren. Die Piraten gaben sich nicht mit den herrschenden gesellschaftlichen Normen zufrieden, sie stellten in Frage und versuchten neue Wege zu gehen. Der Podcast richtet sich an offene Menschen, an Querdenker, an solche, denen die heutige Streit- und Diskussionskultur zu einfältig, rechthaberisch und politisch korrekt geworden ist.
