Finding True Worth

In this episode, Matt shares his journey from accidental entrepreneurship in 2017 to the discovery and healing of deep-seated childhood trauma. Struggling with anxiety and stress and even experiencing panic attacks, Matt sought help and uncovered unresolved issues from his past that affected his self-worth. Despite growing his business to a million-dollar venture annually, he speaks about the struggles he faced growing up, including his contentious relationship with his father, being forced into sports, and feeling out of place due to his sensitivity and sexuality. Matt's story emphasizes the importance of acknowledging one's worth, the pitfalls of living from a place of scarcity, and the ongoing journey of growth and healing. Matt is more than just an entrepreneur and author—he's a conqueror of challenges and a beacon of personal transformation. With an unwavering belief in the inherent wisdom within each of us, he guides his clients to unearth their inner strength and conquer the barriers blocking their path to success. Matt’s scaled his business to generate an impressive $1M in annual revenue, and he works one-on-one with high-achievers who grapple with self-doubt, illuminating the truth that there's nothing inherently flawed within them and empowering them to embrace their true selves, enabling them to pursue their passions and aspirations with confidence and purpose.
