We recently connected with Mike Chabot and have shared our conversation below.

Mike, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today Let’s start with the story of your mission. What should we know?

The mission of Road to Abundance is to help people, particularly entrepreneurs and change-makers, live an abundant life holistically. By “holistic,” I mean a life rich not just in wealth but also in health and relationships. Many successful men often find themselves ensnared in society’s definitions of success, focusing solely on money and neglecting their well-being and relationships. Through my program, The Rewired Experience, I aim to shift this narrative by teaching people how to achieve success that’s deeply fulfilling at its core.

It’s meaningful to me because I was exactly one of those men. There have been quite a few milestones for me, but some of the major ones include:

Going bankrupt at 25, which forced me to reevaluate my priorities and business strategies.
Living the ‘dream’ life in the Maldives but feeling hollow inside.
My transformative time in Bali that led to a shift in my core values.
Finally I achieved not just financial success but also emotional and relational fulfillment, which I now call ‘abundance.’
Shifting my focus towards coaching, a calling that truly aligns with my mission in life.

Mike, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

I’ve always been a bit of a rebel, questioning societal norms and searching for more meaningful paths. Like many young men, I wanted to achieve financial success and did so in my early twenties. But it took me realizing that I had everything I’d ever wanted—only to still feel empty—to truly start my journey towards holistic success. It was a life-altering experience in Bali that truly rewired my mindset. That’s when I knew I had to share this way of life with others, hence the inception of Road to Abundance and The Rewired Experience.

On my journey to become the man I am today I faced all the challenges I helped my client to overcome. I invested hundreds of thousands of dollars into personal development, mentors, seminars, research, books, and more to craft my skills. I come from a background of health & fitness, and I went to do way more certifications like chakras, energy, breathwork and more.

Outcome: Helping male entrepreneurs take a holistic approach to growing their business & enhancing the quality of their life without experiencing consistent burnout.

The Rewired Experience is for those who have tasted success but find something missing in their lives. It’s for business owners and individuals committed to personal growth and ready for a change. We have a 12-week structured online program along with group coaching focusing on health, relationships, and wealth. I like to think of it as a bootcamp for your soul, your goals, and your dreams. You have to apply and be selected to ensure that every participant is as committed to growth as we are.

I have develop a methodology called I.R.P which stands for Identity Creation: Getting painfully clear on exactly where you want to go, & who you want to become, so you can gain clarity on the actions you have to take along your journey to mold yourself into an optimal performer.

Rewired Optimization: During this phase we’ll apply different subconscious rewiring techniques so we can analyze our limiting beliefs & create new effective habits towards exponential growth.

Path Creation: Throughout this process we’ll be focusing on crafting an actionable plan & utilizing different holistic approaches suited specifically for you, so we can make progress inevitable without experiencing extensive burnout.

How about pivoting – can you share the story of a time you’ve had to pivot?

I had many pivot moment in my life but One of the most pivotal moments in my career—and life—came towards the end of November 2022. At that time, I was running multiple businesses and generating over half a million dollars per year. On paper, it looked like I had everything one could want: financial freedom, a lifestyle many would envy, and business success. Yet, something was missing.

Despite the revenue and materialistic achievements, there was a growing emptiness within me. It was as if all the financial gains were just noise drowning out my inner voice that kept telling me, “There’s more to life.” This nagging feeling had started years before, during a trip to the Maldives, and later solidified during my transformative journey in Bali.

So, I took a radical step. I decided to let go of all my existing businesses and revenue streams to focus solely on my mission with Road to Abundance and The Rewired Experience. It was an audacious, almost counterintuitive move, considering the societal norms of accumulating as much wealth and business success as possible. But I needed to align my professional life with my newfound purpose: to help others achieve holistic success.

It was a leap of faith, but one that I felt compelled to make. Sometimes, the riskiest move on the surface is the safest move for your soul. Since then, I’ve been working diligently on this new venture, and the fulfillment I’ve received is immeasurable. I finally feel aligned, both in my business endeavors and in my personal life.

We’d love to hear a story of resilience from your journey.

Resilience has been the cornerstone of my life, but one episode that truly underscores this quality is when I hit rock bottom at the age of 25. At that time, I went bankrupt and ended a toxic relationship almost simultaneously. To many, it would have seemed like the end of the road; to me, it was a forced pause that made me reevaluate my life’s direction.

After the bankruptcy, I could’ve given in to despair or returned to a more traditional path, something society would deem ‘safe.’ I had been a good student, so the option to go back to college was always there. But deep inside, I knew that wouldn’t align with who I was or who I wanted to become.

Instead, I chose to see that low point as a trampoline, an opportunity to bounce back but in a different direction—one that aligned more closely with my true self. Within just six months, I found myself back on track, driving a brand-new Mercedes and living in a luxury apartment. I put myself back in a position where I had the freedom to eat out five times a week, set my own schedule, and get out of a relationship that wasn’t serving me.

What kept me going? A blend of intrinsic motivation and an insatiable curiosity to understand the nuances of life and business. I continuously invested in my personal growth, hiring coaches, reading books, and attending seminars. I also started implementing what I learned, tweaking my approach until I got the results I was looking for.

This experience taught me that resilience is more than just enduring; it’s about bouncing back with wisdom and a new sense of direction. That’s the ethos I’ve brought into my current venture, The Rewired Experience. It’s designed to not only help people bounce back from their challenges but to help them do so in a way that brings them closer to their authentic selves and their vision for an abundant life.
