Season 3 / Episode 3: Curtis Korchinski - Don't just survive, thrive!
Quotes on change: "It's more than about survival ... it's about thriving."
Commercial realtor, entrepreneur, former restaurateur, body-builder, and family man.
Curtis Korchinski is well-known in these parts for owning and operating restaurants; he was also successful in the restaurant business in Vancouver.
Curtis comes from a strong entrepreneurial family but decided early in life he didn’t want to work in the family business. Restaurants were his life for many years – he loved the chaos and the energy, but the chaos got harder as he grew older and Curtis found he wanted and preferred more predictability.
He and his partner moved back to Saskatoon from Vancouver where Curtis started a new career in a new industry – and then COVID hit and he was out of a job for the first time in his life. He took a full year to reflect and decide what was next in his life.
Curtis talks about his family – both his adoptive parents and his birth parents, how they have shaped him, and what it was like growing up as a young gay man in a small prairie city.
