In this episode of The RebelRebel Podcast, host Michael Dargie welcomes David Blake, known as the Flip Flop Philosopher. David is a motivational speaker, corporate trainer, and advocate for bringing human-ness back to business in an era increasingly dominated by technology. Blake shares his incredible journey of transformation after a life-altering surgery left him temporarily unable to walk, talk, or even hold himself up. This pivotal moment sparked his unique philosophy—embracing the power of “flip-flopping” one’s mindset to find solutions to life’s challenges.

This episode is sponsored by my new book BRANDJITSU, helping you find, shape, and share your story with the world.

David explores the value of human connection, which is often lost in today’s world of digital interactions and automation. His philosophy encourages people to pause, re-evaluate, and flip their perspective to approach life and business with renewed clarity. He also shares his powerful 10-10-10 rule for balancing work, creativity, and personal recovery, offering insights into how saying “no” can be the most liberating decision.

The conversation looks into the loss of human interaction, technology’s influence on our daily lives, and how to reclaim meaningful communication in business and personal relationships. Blake’s advice for entrepreneurs and “rebels in waiting” is both practical and deeply motivational: ask questions, connect with mentors, and don’t be afraid to fail.

“Be the person you wish was there for you.”
“Flip-flop your mindset to unlock new possibilities.”
“We’ve lost a lot of touch. The more technology we embrace, the less we interact on a human level.”
“The 10-10-10 plan is about balance—10 days for work, 10 for creation, and 10 for recovery.”
“Ask, ask, ask. Don’t be afraid to ask for help or guidance. That’s how you grow.”

In this episode of The RebelRebel Podcast, host Michael Dargie chats with entrepreneur Krish Sidhu, the visionary behind Evolve Co. and its groundbreaking Perform H2O.

Broadcasting from Vancouver, Krish walks us through his latest venture in hydration science—a tech-enhanced water that improves absorption using frequency technology. Developed over ten years with $12.5 million in research, this water’s secret lies in a sticker embedded with thousands of nano layers, using Earth’s natural atmospheric frequencies to make water more bioavailable. This innovation helps athletes stay hydrated, improves recovery time, and enhances performance.

This episode is sponsored by my new book BRANDJITSU, helping you find, shape, and share your story with the world.

Krish shares the journey of launching his product on major platforms like Amazon, Walmart, and Shopify, with expansion plans across international markets. Beyond hydration, he explores the possibilities of using the same technology for wearables and skincare. The conversation gets into Krish’s background in sports, martial arts, and construction, and his passion for entrepreneurship and growth. His entrepreneurial journey spans industries from real estate development to cannabis.

Wrapping up, Krish offers advice for “Rebels in Waiting,” emphasizing resilience, readiness, and the importance of taking risks in both business and life.

“We put a frequency-embedded sticker on the water bottle, and it changes everything about how your body absorbs it.”
“It’s better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war. Always be ready.”
“I want to make lots of money, help lots of people, and have lots of fun—that’s my parameter for success.”
“We’re energizing water in a way that’s scientifically backed. It’s a game changer for performance and recovery.”

Marisa was taught at a young age about the power of volunteering and giving, so much so she made an exciting new business around that very concept -- SockFootage.com.

When you buy a pair of cool socks either from their website or their sock vending machine, you are given a second pair of socks to donate to the homeless. Socks are the most needed and least donated items at homeless shelters in North America so she decided to do something about it.

Martyn had it all; from the big house in the UK, to the most posh rides, he had all the trappings of success but none of the happiness. So he decided to walk away from it all and follow his passion—restoring fine automobiles and dream cars.

Not one to be put in a corner, he's also a pilot, a motorcycle rider, a fusion jazz musician, and lover of life who may or may not be building a backpack powered flying machine.

It was from Byron Brooks successful construction company and a love for craft beer he landed on an idea called 'Builders and Brews'; a way for the construction industry to supports each other similar to that of our local craft beer market.

It all started back in high school when it became evident an academic life just wasn't for him—so he dove deep into learning the trades and along the way discovered that 'The Trades' feed into everything and the power of work is amplified by others.
