Part 1: My guest Pete K. Wong is a speaker, facilitator, and podcast host. A two-time suicide* survivor, he shares through his personal stories and experiences ways to overcome life’s difficult moments. Recognizing the importance of taking care of our mental and physical health and developing a more robust and healthier mindset, Pete does this by utilizing the techniques and principles found in boxing, martial arts, yoga, and meditation. He’s spoken to schools, organizations, corporations, and senior-assisted homes, spreading his core message of radical vulnerability. You can listen in on topics about mental health and wellness with Pete and his guests on The Pete Wong Podcast.
We explore Pete's journey of loosing his best friend as a youth, finding mentors who mirrored love and determination, examining shame and outdated beliefs, and much more.
