At 81 years old, Matthew Lesko radiates a youthful exuberance that belies his age. As Walt Thiessen discovered in their captivating conversation, Matthew's secret lies not in any anti-aging elixir, but in the unwavering passion that has fueled his life's work.

For decades, Matthew has been a familiar face on late-night television, hawking books that promised to unlock the secrets of tapping into government funding. But as Walt learned, Matthew's mission extends far beyond mere financial gain. It is a labor of love, driven by a deep-seated desire to help others navigate the complex web of social services and government assistance programs.

"I see the need so much, and there's more need now than ever before," Matthew shared, his voice brimming with conviction. "We create more poor people in our country than any other developed country." This stark reality has only strengthened his resolve to be a beacon of hope for those struggling to make ends meet.

What sets Matthew apart is not just his wealth of knowledge, but the authenticity and vulnerability he brings to his work. "If your heart's not in it, Oh, that's right, that's right, you didn't have the heart before, remember that, right?" he mused, underscoring the importance of finding one's true passion.

For Matthew, that passion was ignited by the failures he faced early in his career – a failed software company, a string of unsuccessful business ventures. But rather than letting these setbacks define him, he embraced them as opportunities for growth. "Failure, you know, that's where you learn," he explained. "That's something you won't do again, like the stove being hot and you burn yourself."

This willingness to learn from mistakes and pivot accordingly has been the hallmark of Matthew's journey. As he shared, it was only after stumbling and struggling that he discovered his true calling – not in the pursuit of wealth, but in the joy of helping others.
"I just see the need so much, and there's more need now than ever before," he said, his eyes shining with a deep empathy. "That's what I feel. I love telling people where to go."

And go, he has – from connecting people with local resources for rent, healthcare, and legal aid, to providing grants and laptop computers through his organization, "Let's Go Help." Matthew's vision extends beyond mere transactions; it is a holistic approach rooted in the belief that the heart holds the key to true fulfillment.
"My favorite one is your heart smarter than your brain," he shared, encapsulating the essence of his message. "So listen to that guy."

As Walt and Matthew's conversation drew to a close, it was clear that Matthew's legacy extends far beyond the question-mark suits and late-night infomercials. It is a legacy of compassion, resilience, and the unwavering belief that when we lead with our hearts, the path to purpose and happiness becomes illuminated.
