In this episode of What Helps You?, I sit down with my personal trainer turned close friend, Matt Gagnon, for a conversation that’s equal parts chaotic, philosophical, and unexpectedly profound.From wild Cinco de Mayo stories to reflections on resilience and losing the only dream you ever had, this episode moves seamlessly between laughter and life lessons.Matt opens up about growing up as the minority in his school, losing his hockey career to injury, navigating reckless seasons of life, and the mindset shift that ultimately grounded him: appreciation. Together, we unpack what it means to make instantaneous versus situational choices, how character is built through discomfort, and why sometimes getting “punched in the face” is part of the shift that shapes us into who we’re meant to become.
