Defeating Can't Podcast
Welcome to the Defeating Can't Podcast, ignited by the roots of a remarkable journey that began in 2017. What began as a strategy for professional and personal achievement evolved into a local apparel brand across Hawai'i, resonating nationally and internationally. Beyond clothing, my journey delved into psychology, a passion for mental health, suicide prevention, and the science behind optimizing human performance—the "Science of CAN."
This podcast features interviews with friends, family, and inspired individuals from Kaua'i, and throughout the CAN. world, all united in our collective journey to conquer self-defeating thoughts. We refuse to surrender to a life veiled in quiet desperation, as aptly put by Thoreau. Instead, this concept, our business, and this podcast endeavors to contribute a verse, however modest, to enrich lives. Join me as we explore defeating limitations and embracing the Spirit of "CAN."
Remember, the discussions and concepts discussed in this podcast are for informational purposes only. If the 'can't" in your mind ever becomes too much, we encourage you to consult with a qualified professional. CAN. Ask for Help.

Stefan Gaar: A Journey to Cycle Across Seven Continents
In this episode of Defeating Can't, I sit down with Stefan—better known as Freak of Nature on Instagram—who is embarking on an extraordinary mission: cycling across all seven continents. At just 26 years old, this Austrian adventurer set out in early October, traveling fully self-supported with his camping gear, determined to experience some of the world’s most breathtaking destinations, including the Seven Wonders of the World.
Stefan shares his route, from Austria through Slovenia, Croatia, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Cyprus, Jordan, and Nepal, highlighting the highs and lows of life on the road—including a tire burst in Turkey that tested his resilience. He also reflects on the unique encounters with locals, the physical and mental challenges of the journey, and the excitement of having his father, Klaus, join him for the South American leg of the adventure.
With plans to continue through Asia, Australia, and New Zealand, Stefan’s story is one of determination, discovery, and pushing beyond limits. If you've ever dreamed of an epic adventure, his advice is simple: don’t wait—go for it before it’s too late.
