Over Open Mike

Open Mike is a podcast where I step to the mic to talk about life, growth, and navigating the world as a thoughtful Black man. This is a space for honest, reflective conversations about discipline, identity, purpose, and what it really looks like to grow as a young adult. Each episode is a chance to slow down, think out loud, and explore the ideas shaping who we’re becoming. If you’ve ever felt stuck, in transition, or just trying to figure things out — you’re not alone. New episodes weekly.

Finding Gratitude in the Small Things

In this episode of Open Mike, I reflect on the importance of finding gratitude in the small things. It’s easy to get caught up in goals, routines, and responsibilities, constantly thinking about what’s next. But in doing that, we often overlook the fact that we’re already living in moments we once wished for. From the ability to move freely, to having independence, to even the job we once worked toward — there’s so much in our daily lives that goes unnoticed. This episode is a reminder to slow down, take it all in, and start acknowledging the small things that make life meaningful. ⚠️ Note Audio is slightly off on this episode — feel free to turn on captions if needed. 🔗 Connect With Me Instagram: @mikexmartn TikTok: @mikexmartn

Your Job Is Not Your Purpose

In this episode of Open Mike, I talk about reframing the way we think about work. For a long time, I placed a lot of expectation on my job to fulfill me, develop me, and give me direction. When it didn’t, I found myself feeling drained and emotionally invested in something that was never meant to define me. In this episode, I share the mindset shift that helped me take my power back — seeing my job as a business agreement rather than a source of identity. I also talk about using your job to fund your passions, transferring skills from your 9–5 into your personal goals, and releasing the emotional weight that comes with unrealistic expectations. If you’ve been feeling stuck or burned out by work, this conversation is for you. 🔗 Connect With Me Instagram: @mikexmartn [https://www.instagram.com/mikexmartn] TikTok: @mikexmartn [https://www.tiktok.com/@mikexmartn]
