The Grateful Podcast with Jack Wagoner
Episode 107
Guesting Tristan Gregoire
Clarity isn’t found in a plan. It’s found in the process.

In this episode of The Grateful Podcast, I sit down with 24-year-old Tristan Gregoire, founder of The Best Self Protocol. Tristan went from being a chronic overthinker, stuck in endless vision boards and anxiety, to creating clarity, confidence, and real change.

We talk about how he broke the loop of consuming endless self-help without action, why small steps compound into transformation, and how imperfect action beats the perfect plan every time. Tristan shares the paradox of success — that gratitude and ambition can co-exist — and why your life depends on the story you tell yourself.

By the end, you’ll feel clearer, calmer, and more connected to your own path.
