What Matters With Henry Winkler: Presence, Gratitude

“I believe pivoting is one of the keys to living.” — Henry Winkler

Beloved Emmy Award–winning actor, director, producer, and bestselling author Henry Winkler became a cultural icon as The Fonz on Happy Days and captivated a new generation with his Emmy-winning role as Gene Cousineau on Barry. But behind the fame is a deeply thoughtful man whose life has been defined by resilience, reinvention, and gratitude.

In this powerful premiere episode of What Matters with Liz — a podcast exploring what truly matters in the hearts, happiness, and health of women over 40 — Henry shares the lessons he’s learned from more than five decades in Hollywood, navigating setbacks, healing old wounds, and continually reinventing himself.

Henry opens up about:

How he has stayed grounded and grateful through 50+ years in the spotlight
Why he believes being present is one of life’s greatest skills
Recognizing when it’s time to pivot — and how reinvention keeps you alive
How dyslexia shaped his confidence, compassion, and purpose
The inspiration behind writing more than 40 children’s books, including the bestselling Hank Zipzer series
The emotional wounds he’s still working to heal
Why admitting when you’re wrong strengthens relationships
Why the opinions of Ron Howard, Adam Sandler, and Jimmy Kimmel carry weight in his life
What makes his happiest days

This is a conversation filled with warmth, humor and profound wisdom for anyone parenting a child with dyslexia, navigating change, or rediscovering purpose.
