This week on Growing Pains with Andrew Heckman, we’re joined by OGGO Jax — Canada’s #1 potcast producer, creative force, and Andrew’s very own sister
Jax opens up about her unexpected path: from a baking apprenticeship to living and working in Switzerland, and how those experiences shaped the mindset she brings to her work today.
But that’s just the start…
Andrew and Jax dive head-first into the world of comic book importance, the deep layers of Pokémon lore, and the kind of ’90s nostalgia only real ones remember — including popping Pokémon packs, and the mysterious and beloved Winnie the Pooh gas station books. Yes… those ones. You’ll have to watch to find out
Whether you’re here for the laughs, the stories, or the unexpected wisdom that comes from unlikely journeys, this episode proves that growth doesn’t always look like a straight line — sometimes it looks like a detour that leads exactly where you’re meant to go

This episode of Growing Pains with Andrew Heckman is a little different: no guests, no cohosts, just Andrew. It’s heavier, quieter, and filled with honesty. Recently, the community has felt a few losses. Andrew didn’t personally know those who passed — but loss hits everyone, no matter the distance. Grief, struggle, and mental health don’t discriminate.
Andrew opens up about the weight that so many people — especially men — carry in silence. This episode is for anyone who’s hurting, anyone who needs an ear, and anyone who feels alone.
If you need this one, it’s here for you.
If you know someone who might, feel free to share it.
You matter more than you know.
