I came across Shaun Oceans through an interview he had done on YouTube. Something about his story stayed with me. After that, I reached out to him—and this conversation is the result. In June 2020, he had a near-death experience that deeply changed how he sees life—and how he lives it.
This interview was originally meant to be a vlog. I invested in new audio equipment to take the sound to the next level. But when I finished the interview and listened back, I heard a buzzing sound throughout.
So I spent quite a bit of time and energy shaping what you hear here. And yes—I turned the interview into a podcast instead. As we often say, things happen for a reason—or we can shape them into something good. The challenges with the audio pushed me to finally create my very first podcast. I have wanted to do this for a long time, but had not made space for it. Now, I feel like I was simply thrown into it—and I am grateful for that. And this conversation… it was truly worth it.
I also chose to publish this first episode on my personal blog today. It felt right to share it in both places. The journey of creation will continue—and so will the quality along the way.
I hope it offers you a meaningful listening experience.
