Featured in "The Longest Road" by Calendino & Little

Kaleeg Hainsworth's journey, from the streets of Calgary to becoming a pioneering CEO and spiritual leader, is one of resilience and transformation. His story is a powerful reminder of the strength it takes to rise above circumstances and pursue a meaningful life.

Looking at Kaleeg Hainsworth, you would be hard-pressed to understand a fraction of what this man has experienced in life. Soft-spoken, articulate, and rather slight of frame, you might easily mistake him for a teacher or university lecturer, which he has been.

But for the time being, life with his loving parents...
