Make It Matter: An Experiential Roadmap for Collective Transformational Growth and Impact
Some stories stop us in our tracks. Stories so meaningful that they send a ripple of positive impact that transforms millions of lives. That is Matt’s story. That is what Making it Matter can truly do.
After achieving incredible success in the music industry working on projects for the biggest artists in the world, including U2, Coldplay, Avril Lavigne, and more, Matt’s life changed one Monday morning when he woke up with a crippling panic attack that would set him on a course to change the world in ways he never would have expected.
Matt realized that everything he thought mattered – didn’t. So he set on a journey to rediscover life’s purpose and why he truly matters. In doing so, Matt’s life took various twists and turns as he discovered that mattering is at the heart of everything we do, intentional or not. He needed a recalibration that helped him see more clearly: live on purpose and change how you show up in the world. This discovery led to the Mattering Mindset — a methodology that has transformed the lives of millions of leaders, businesses, and lives around the world.
In this grounded, impactful, and actionable keynote, Matt shares how to make purpose and impact tangible, that we are one discovery away from a life of true meaning, and that we all play an integral role in building the teams and organizations we dreamed of being a part of.
