Mark Tewksbury

Canadian swimmer Mark Tewksbury won gold at the Barcelona Olympics. Fed up by corruption within the Olympic committee ranks, he left to become active with the Gay Gaymes. His mantra is to "skweeze" the most out of life…

Each week Mark discusses an aspect of his Skweeze Life! philosophy on CTV's morning show Canada AM and every week we post a transcribed version of the episode http://www.nsb.com/speakerbio.asp?i_speakerid=64. Follow along and learn a little more about yourself and how to make the best out of your life.
Skweeze Life! is about grabbing life and getting past your personal barriers whether they are internal or external. It's about feeling connected, being energized and getting the most out of yourself, your life and every single day.
It can be harder than it sounds. In this wired, fast paced world people are forced to operate at an increasingly hectic pace. Like hamsters running on a wheel, people go, go, go, getting exhausted without really getting where they want to go. Many people just exist, feeling rushed, overwhelmed, insecure, disconnected, isolated and trapped, living at the minimum. There is a lot more to life, you've just got to choose to live to it's fullest.

Seek. Explore. Simplify. Enjoy. Get excited about your life. It is up to YOU.


Skweeze Life is a hands on, five step action program that reminds and challenges you to:

· Live in the moment
· Be true to yourself
· Make the most out of things
· Be the best you can be
· Be an inspiration

Working through these five steps everyday will change your attitudes, outlook and life. It will give you clarity, control and the energy to be your absolute best.
