What happens when you've got the dream job, the big title, and the freedom to live anywhere — but your soul starts to die?

In this episode, I sit down with Matt Wilson, former venture capital partner turned executive coach for FinTech CEOs, to explore how letting go of a “perfect-on-paper” life led him to rediscover what truly lights him up.

From leading in the military and scaling startups to walking away from it all in search of deeper meaning, Matt shares a vulnerable and powerful story of realignment — from strategy to soul work.

-> Why success can still leave you feeling stuck
-> The difference between zone of excellence and zone of genius
-> How emotional clarity leads to better leadership
-> What most high-performers are missing when they play it “safe”
-> Parenting lessons on talent, effort, and how to help kids thrive

This conversation is a must-listen for any dad or coach who's ever wondered if there's more — and how to find the courage to go after it. 

Enjoy!
