In this episode, we catch up with Matt Lemmon—a thoughtful communicator, dedicated husband, and someone who’s been on a personal mission to shake up his health and fitness routine. You might remember his wife, Bethany Lemmon, from a recent episode, and it was just as fun having Matt join us for a real, down-to-earth conversation.

We talk about how Matt went from casual, on-and-off running to working with a personal trainer, lifting weights consistently, and even dipping his toes into the world of Crossfit-style workouts. He opens up about what it’s like to approach fitness differently in your 40s, how accountability and coaching changed the game, and why it's okay to evolve how you train.

We also dive into his career as a professional communicator—how storytelling, strategy, and connection have guided his work—and cap it all off with a shared love for the TV show Lost, exploring why it still sticks with him years later.

It’s an inspiring reminder that it’s never too late to challenge yourself, change directions, and grow stronger—physically and mentally.
