Hey everyone! Austin Becker here, host of the Falling Off the Floor podcast. This week, I had an incredibly honest and inspiring conversation with Matt Kovatchis, a mental health speaker, life coach, and a true example of what personal growth really looks like. Matt's journey from a high-stakes corporate job to helping others navigate their own struggles is nothing short of amazing, especially how coming out of his shell fundamentally transformed his entire life.If you've ever wondered about how coming out transformed me or thought about giving up my career for my dreams, Matt's story offers powerful insights. Let's dive into some key takeaways from our chat.Matt started our conversation by openly sharing his struggle with high-functioning depression. From the outside, he seemed to have it all: a lucrative banking career, a great social life, and a seemingly perfect background. But internally, he felt "miserable and alone," burdened by the societal expectations of success. This internal conflict created immense guilt, as he felt he should be happy but simply wasn't.He realized this internal battle stemmed largely from a deep insecurity and a struggle with self-acceptance, particularly concerning his identity as a bisexual man. Growing up, he internalized homophobic messages that made him believe being anything other than straight was "wrong." This deeply ingrained shame led him to try and deny who he truly was, resulting in unhealthy behaviors and being perceived as "the dick" in college. It’s a powerful example of how external pressures and a fear of not fitting in can manifest in unexpected ways, especially within bro culture environments.The turning point for Matt was the courageous act of coming out to his closest friends and family. He described sending a long text to his sisters, who initially thought he was joking because he'd hidden his true self so well. Their "incredibly supportive" response, along with a close friend's words of "pride and respect," flipped his world upside down. This marked the beginning of his painful but ultimately liberating journey towards self-acceptance and healing.His story resonated deeply with me. I shared my own experiences with struggling while presenting a perfect facade, and the journey of realizing that true strength comes from authenticity. It reminded me of professional skier Gus Kenworthy's story of coming out in the very "bro" world of skiing, and the love he received for being true to himself. These stories truly highlight how coming out transformed me and countless others, leading to profound personal peace and freedom.Matt's personal transformation directly fueled his career shift. He realized he was living "totally unauthentically" in the corporate banking world and couldn't stay. He became passionate about personal growth and self-help, hiring coaches and diving into learning about coaching and mindfulness.His decision to leave corporate banking, a move he described as the "second hardest thing" after coming out, is a testament to his commitment to his passion. He weighed the "worst-case scenario" – returning to corporate life – and found his appetite for risk was different after his personal journey. This willingness to take a chance on his dreams, despite the uncertainty, is a common theme for many looking to become a mental health professional or life coach. It speaks to the courage required to pursue a career that aligns with your true self, especially when it means stepping away from comfort and privilege.

Hey everyone! Austin Becker here, host of the Falling Off the Floor podcast. This week, I had the incredible opportunity to sit down with Connery Lundin, a true legend in the big mountain skiing scene from Palisades Tahoe, California. Our chat was a deep dive into what it takes to be a professional skier, the evolution of the sport, and some really honest talk about the life of a professional athlete and mental health.Connery and I connected through the ski world, sharing roots in California skiing. Hearing his story, from the competitive circuit to navigating the complexities of a pro career, was truly inspiring. Let's get into some of the highlights from our conversation!Connery and I bonded over our similar paths, both starting in ski racing. He's a classic "weekend warrior" from the Bay Area who moved to Palisades Tahoe at 16 to pursue ski racing. He quickly realized that the discipline and fundamentals learned in ski racing are incredibly valuable for tackling big mountains.I can totally relate! Growing up in Southern California's Big Bear area, ski racing was my foundation too. When I transitioned into the freestyle scene after an injury, those race techniques surprisingly prepared me for the daunting world of big mountain skiing. It’s wild how those early skills can be so versatile later on!Connery made a significant mark early in his career, winning the American Freeskiing World Tour in 2015. Back then, there were actually two separate global tours, but his victory was a huge stepping stone. He openly shared how that win became a pivotal moment, shaping the trajectory of his career as a big mountain skier.This kind of early success often raises the question: What does it take to be a professional skier at that level? It's not just talent; it's dedication, intense training, and a willingness to push boundaries.One of the most fascinating parts of our chat was discussing how the life of a professional athlete in skiing has drastically changed. Connery reflected on how when he started, success was measured by magazine features, major ski movie appearances (think MSP, TGR, Warren Miller), and competition wins.Fast forward to today, and while those avenues still matter, the game has fundamentally shifted. Social media and content creation have become massive platforms. Connery and I agreed that this change has opened up new ways for skiers to sustain their careers, even well into their 30s and 40s, offering a second wind for many outside the traditional competition circuit. It’s cool to see how athletes are adapting and finding new ways to connect with fans and sponsors.Connery Lundin showcasing his big mountain skills.After his big win, Connery faced a common dilemma for many athletes: What's next? He candidly admitted that competitive skiing, especially big mountain, is incredibly dangerous. He chose to step away from competition to pursue his dream of filming with major production companies.This transition wasn't easy. Despite being a world champion, Connery found himself working two restaurant jobs in Jackson, Wyoming, just to make ends meet. He was "stressed" and "blowing it" – feeling like he wasn't filming or competing. It highlights the often unseen financial pressures of the life of a professional athlete. His big break came with a trip to film "Monumental" for Powder Magazine, leading to more opportunities with Matchstick Productions. This really shows that success isn't always a straight line; it's often a winding road with unexpected challenges.Connery's recent season saw him splitting time between Canada and various film projects, including a Toyota commercial that aired during the Super Bowl – a pretty massive achievement! At 35, his focus is on staying healthy and finding the fun in skiing, even when motivation might dip.
