Ways to Wealth, Ep 34: From Anxiety to Off-Grid Freedom, with Matt Wright

This week on the Ways to Wealth Podcast, we're joined by Matt Wright! Matt Wright is a Māori father of three from Ngāti Kahu who transformed his life from anxiety-ridden isolation to off-grid independence in New Zealand's far north. Starting from a place where he couldn't leave his house or make phone calls, Matt used his daughter as emotional support to rebuild his confidence and eventually became a social media content creator documenting his family's sustainable living journey. Charlie and Matt explore Matt's remarkable transformation from urban renting to off-grid homesteading. They discuss how watching "The Secret" sparked Matt's belief in manifestation, leading to his first home purchase in a former P-lab property. The conversation covers their strategic house sale timing before COVID, netting $200,000 profit, which funded their six-acre land purchase in the far north for $130K. Matt shares insights on living sustainably while working within existing systems, building separate structures including a family yurt, and developing their business Kaingaroa Plant Lady. They explore themes of mental health, the importance of knowing yourself before pursuing major life changes, and how personal growth often requires confronting fears. The discussion touches on family relationships, Māori cultural influences, and Matt's vision for community living inspired by his grandfather's dreams.
