Goddess Unleashed with Diane Vich05-07-20 Courage and Compassion Series: Matthew Ode a Keynote Motivational Speaker

Diane launches her Courage and Compassion series to spread hope, love and happiness by sharing stories from healers that overcame a significant health or life crisis.  These amazing individuals show compassion towards others by using their story to empower others to push through their challenges and strive for their dream.

Her first guest for this spectacular series is Matthew Ode a Keynote Motivational Speaker that shares his painful experience and triumph over Stage III testicular cancer.  Their conversations bring joy and love to a topic that is so difficult for many to discuss, “Cancer.”  Matthew’s story took many painful rock bottom turns into dark places that could have left him depressed, unmotivated and frozen.  But Matthew pushed through the darkness and overcame the seemingly impossible.  He had a near death experience, 5 surgeries and was in a coma that left him unable to walk, yet he stood up and fought back.  He knew that his story could help others and the motivation of spreading hope propelled him forward.  And this selflessness and deep compassion exponentially propelled his healing and transformation.  In the midst of his battle with cancer he found love, support and friendship in a beautiful lady Lauren Falvey.  And their unique connection is spectacular, funny and inspirational.

Diane touches hearts explaining the feelings we experience when life falls apart and negative thoughts take over.  They both agree that self-limiting beliefs can through us off course and tackling the subconscious mind with a positive outlook and mindfulness is crucial.  Tackling obstacles and challenges head on by taking a leap is the best way to get out of your own way.  The resistance to change will persist if you let it win.  This spectacular episode brings to light the power of evolving and growing through your setbacks to achieve your dreams by helping others heal. They both have found that support and friendship comes to us in mysterious ways at the perfect moment.  And it can be easy to find love and nurturing even in the most difficult challenges.  This first interview in the series truly sheds light on the power of positive thinking and selflessness in the journey to wellness and achieving your dreams.

From Cancer to Coma, at the age of 24 Matt Ode was diagnosed with stage 3C Testicular cancer. After chemotherapy and a very complicated surgery to remove the remaining cancer from his body, Matt encountered various complications. He was under the watch and care of the ICU for over 40 days and in the Cleveland Clinic for 53 days where he was met with a number of near-death experiences including 5 major surgeries causing a large open wound on his stomach. For two weeks, he laid non-responsive in a coma, met with complete kidney and liver failure, and went into cardiac arrest where nurses performed 8 minutes of CPR to bring him back to life. Doctors didn’t know if and when he would awake, informing his family and girlfriend he would likely be on dialysis the rest of his life having to relearn everyday tasks like eating and walking again. Prior to the diagnosis and subsequent treatment, Matt was a healthy personal trainer weighing in at 185 lb. But this disease wreaked havoc on his body and in a matter of 8 moths he dwindled down to a mere 110 lbs.

Fast forward 3 years later after hard work and deep internal discovery, Matt Ode is as vibrant, enthusiastic, and energetic as ever helping individuals transform their mind, body and spirit, as a highly sought after Keynote Inspirational Speaker.
