Hello everyone, and welcome to Unwritten Chapters. I’m your host, Matthew Heneghan—an award-winning author, former paramedic, and military veteran.

In 2017, I was diagnosed with PTSD and depression as a result of my time in service, and since then, I’ve been on a journey of learning—about myself, about how to navigate the world, and about finding self-compassion when it feels impossible. Writing became a lifeline, and sharing my story led me to being featured on CBC, CTV News, and publishing two full-length books, one of which sits proudly in the National War Museum of Ottawa.

Unwritten Chapters is a podcast about the human condition—exploring personal growth, recovery, and the untold moments that shape who we are. Because, like you, I believe we all have chapters yet to be written.

So, join me on this journey... and together, let’s write the next chapter.

Hey, everyone. Matt here. So, no episode this week. As we near the wonderous holiday that is Christmas, life tends to get a little busy and thus, as this is a one man operation around here at A Medic's Mind the podcast, I run out of time to get the things done that I'd like it. But, I plan to release an episode the following Tuesday, December 17th at the usual time, so be on the lookout for that.

As always, thank you so much for your love and support, it truly does mean the world to me. Thank you.

Be well, be safe, and above all else... keep talking to each other.

This week on A Medic's Mind, I step into the ring of my own life to share an unforgettable weekend. Join me as I dive into my love for WWE wrestling, recount the plane ride that tested my nerves, and reflect on a fancy dinner where I met some of my favorite wrestlers like Bron Breaker, Candice LaRae, Chelsea Green, and Tiffany Stratton. I’ll take you to the electrifying atmosphere of Survivor Series, share what it was like enjoying a weekend getaway with Sheena, and even tell you about a hilarious airport moment that capped it all off.

Through it all, this weekend reminded me of the importance of pushing past anxiety to create memories that last a lifetime. Tune in for a mix of wrestling nostalgia, heartfelt reflection, and lighthearted fun!

Why do we feel the need to hide our emotions? Even when it’s natural to express them, societal pressures often push us to suppress our feelings. In this episode of A Medic's Mind, we explore how these cultural norms impact our mental health and why vulnerability is a powerful strength, not a weakness.

Through personal stories and professional insights, I’ll uncover the mental and physical toll of hiding emotions and share practical tips to help you embrace emotional expression. Whether you’re looking to improve your mental health, strengthen your relationships, or grow personally, this episode is for you.

In this special Remembrance Day episode of A Medic’s Mind, I share two deeply personal stories that reflect on the bonds of brotherhood, the pain of loss, and the enduring power of memory. These stories honor the lives of Cpl. Andrew Eykelenboom, Cpl. Michael Starker, and Pte. Colin Wilmot—brothers who made the ultimate sacrifice.

I also take you behind the scenes of my contribution to the Canadian National War Museum's Oral History Project, where I had the honor of sharing my experiences. Now featured at the museum, this project ensures that the voices and stories of those who served will be preserved for future generations.

This episode is a heartfelt tribute to those we’ve lost and a reminder of the legacy they leave behind. Join me as I honor their memory through words, reflection, and the enduring promise to never forget.

🎧 Listen now and take a moment to reflect on those who gave everything in service of others.
