In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik Chakraborty sits down with Michael Leung, the founder and CEO of The Flow Group, to explore how personal adversity became the foundation for global innovation. From childhood trauma and vision loss to addiction and bankruptcy, Michael opens up about the raw realities that shaped his mission to transform hearing accessibility. Through his open-ear bone conduction device, he's challenging the status quo—making high-quality hearing support affordable for seniors and low-income communities.

This isn’t just a conversation about tech. It’s a wake-up call about purpose, perseverance, and building from the rubble. If you’ve ever felt stuck or unseen, Michael’s story will remind you what’s still possible.

About the Guest:
Michael Leung is the visionary behind The Flow Group, a company redefining accessibility for seniors and individuals with disabilities. Driven by his own lived experience with PTSD, ADHD, and vision impairment, Michael created an affordable, open-ear hearing device that leverages bone conduction technology. His product bridges the gap between dignity and innovation, and his journey has been featured on Forbes, Dragon's Den, and the upcoming docu-series Legacy Makers.

Key Takeaways:

  • Michael’s near-blindness and trauma led to the creation of an innovative hearing device under $300.

  • He challenges overpriced medical devices and promotes health tech equity.

  • His journey underscores how tech can uplift dignity—not just deliver function.

  • Resilience, mentorship, and self-awareness were key to his recovery and entrepreneurial success.

  • Michael advocates for systemic change while using accessible tech to empower underserved populations.
