Episode 133 - Turning Obstacles Part 2 with Matt Blanchard

  • Summary

  • Matt Blanchard Returns for a Part 2 Episode. Matt is a motivational speaker who has inspired thousands of people over the past decade. His speeches are tailored to different groups, from teenagers to corporate executives, and his message of bravery, optimism, and persistence resonates with people from all walks of life. In 2006, Matt faced one such moment: a rollover accident that left him paralyzed from the waist down. But this isn't just a story of adversity; it's a captivating story of resilience, redemption, and the unwavering belief that life happens for you, not to you.

    Throughout his journey, Matt has inspired numerous people as he ventured down the path from paralysis to purpose. He overcame a "T-12 complete" spinal cord injury and was able to walk once more due to daily therapy and unwavering determination.

    However, his journey wasn't without its challenges. The strain of therapy led to an opiate addiction, which he bravely confronted. After eight years of sobriety, he faced another life-altering moment in February 2021—a head-on collision with a drunk driver on I-15. This resulted in another spinal injury, broken legs, and a fractured hip. His ability to walk was once again lost, and he battled painkiller dependence for a second time.

    Matt's approach is grounded in real-life experiences, and he uses concrete examples to illustrate his points. For example, he shares how he overcame personal challenges to become a successful speaker and how others can do the same.

    Matt's motto, "DIG IN DIG DEEP, and GET IT DONE," fuels his determination to help others overcome obstacles and achieve their goals.
