Different Life – Why We’re Back (And Why “Different Is Better Than Better”)

After two and a half years away from the mic, we’re back.

In this trailer episode, Gary Donia and Peter Brouillard reintroduce themselves, share why the previous podcast ended, and explain why now is the right time to bring the conversation back — under a new name and a clearer philosophy.

This is the beginning of Different Life, a Whole Health Solutions podcast built around one core idea:

Different is better than better.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Why “better every day” can feel motivating… and also exhausting
• The difference between chasing “better” and choosing “different”
• What physical therapy really means (and how we approach it differently)
• Why we don’t sell visits — we sell outcomes
• How personal growth starts with intention
• Real examples from our own lives (parenting, resistance to change, patience, new experiences)
• Why capability builds confidence
• How small different actions compound over time

We also share the 10-word descriptor behind this show:

Helping you build a healthier, capable, more meaningful life.

Different Life is a podcast about strength training, physical therapy, injury recovery, mobility, discipline, parenting, business ownership, and the philosophical side of building long-term health.

It’s not motivational fluff.

It’s honest conversation about what actually moves the needle.

Some episodes will be tactical.
Some will be philosophical.
Some will include guests.
All of them will center around one question:

What different decision today could change your life?

This is version one.
We’re building this in public.
And we’re taking you along for the ride.

Be different.
