Welcome to the Pay Love Forward Podcast — a community-powered show about mentoring, service, and the people who make Montana stronger. Hosted by Dr. Matthew Leavenworth, a mental health counselor and storyteller, this podcast highlights local heroes, changemakers, and everyday people working to build a better world.

In this episode, Dr. Matthew Leavenworth sits down with Dr. Bob Wilmouth, physician, educator, and president of Rocky Mountain College. His journey from heart surgery to higher education reveals what leadership looks like when it is rooted in love, humility, and service to others.
Dr. Wilmouth often says that leadership is more difficult than heart surgery and that ninety percent of life is showing up. Across decades of service, he has done exactly that—with faith, presence, and a deep commitment to prepare the ground for those who will come after.
The conversation traces the arc of his life, exploring medicine and mentorship, leadership and legacy, and the quiet strength that defines a life lived in service to something larger than itself. It is a reminder that we are all in this together, and that leadership, at its best, is an act of service.
