Built From Chaos is a podcast and personal development platform founded and hosted by Michael Tandoi, a Rochester, New York native, entrepreneur, author, and advocate for second chances. Michael shares his extraordinary journey from addiction, violence, and incarceration to sobriety, personal transformation, and building a multimillion-dollar paving business from the ground up.

Through honest storytelling, real-life experiences, and practical lessons, Michael helps people understand that their past does not have to determine their future. His podcast explores addiction recovery, overcoming adversity, self-discipline, entrepreneurship, faith, personal responsibility, and the mindset required to rebuild a meaningful life.

Michael is also the author of The Man I Was Destined to Be, a memoir about addiction, incarceration, redemption, and finding his way back to God. Through Built From Chaos, he uses his experiences to inspire people facing difficult circumstances, encourage those seeking a second chance, and demonstrate how determination, accountability, and consistent action can transform a life.
