Pascal Guzzo | Taekwondo ambassador
Pascal Guzzo, a taekwondo competitor since the age of 12, is Canadian vice-champion in 2024, a multiple international medalist and a member of Team Québec. It’s important for him to remind people that the athlete’s journey is not always an easy one, but an inspiring one. In our media-driven world, he encourages people to be authentic for the betterment of our society. Despite a journey with many injuries and obstacles, applicable in all aspects of our lives, Pascal reminds us that it’s important to stay aligned with our “why”, to create memories and appreciate the victories as much as the defeats.
“It’s a way of life. As a competitor and entrepreneur [Green Horizon] in the advertising world trying to reach the top, this sport has taught me a lot and helped me a lot. It taught me that life will try to break you and that reaching your biggest goals isn’t always the easiest. Let me tell you a secret; readjusting and trying again and again and again is the beauty of our life path. Stay disciplined and consistent in everything you do and one day, you’ll reach your biggest goals.”
In closing, Pascal wants to energize competitors. In everything he does, he uses the expression FSA [“Full Steam Ahead”], so “go go go everyone and good luck to all the competitors!
