Finding the sweet spot is everything. Real growth happens in the Goldilocks Zone—not too much, not too little. Start low. Go slow. Take time off. Whether it’s microdosing, creativity, or healing, the goal isn’t intensity—it’s sustainability. When the dose is right, empathy increases, plasticity opens, and flow becomes accessible during the week, while deeper healing can unfold when space allows. Long-term transformation isn’t about pushing harder—it’s about listening closely, adjusting with awareness, and honoring the rhythm that actually works for your nervous system and your...

What if each step wasn’t just movement—but actual medicine? A simple 10–15 minute walk after meals can cut glucose spikes by 20–30%, sharpen thinking (we solve problems best around ~3 MPH), and bring us back into alignment with how we evolved to live—moving often, gently, and daily. From AM walks to PM strolls, yoga to lifting, dancing to cycling, Zone 2 is the quiet powerhouse: low stress, high return. It builds an aerobic base, improves insulin sensitivity, sparks mitochondrial mitogenesis, clears out the old wiring via mitophagy, and delivers compounding energy over time....

From ManBoobs to Best Self. This isn’t about willpower or white-knuckling weight loss—it’s about awareness. Psychedelic-informed work helped me rebuild interoceptive awareness: actually feeling what my body needs instead of intellectualizing unhealthy habits. As I tuned into nourishment, cut toxic, nutrient-dead food, and recommitted to simple practices—real ingredients, batch-cooked veggies, probiotic foods—my body responded naturally. Weight loss became a byproduct of self-love, energy returned, mood lifted, and digestion improved (remember: ~90% of serotonin lives in the gut)....

Can microdosing help bring balance to addictive patterns? For many, yes—when approached with care, intention, and self-honesty. Rather than suppressing urges, intentional microdosing can create space to observe habits with greater awareness and choice. When paired with practices like movement, breathwork, meditation, journaling, and time in nature, it can support healthier relationships with substances, behaviors, emotions, and compulsions. This isn’t about perfection or quick fixes—it’s about harmony. Learning faster, choosing differently, and reconnecting with your innate capacity...

Our brains and nervous systems are not fixed—they are living, adaptive systems constantly responding to how we think, sleep, move, feel, and meet challenges. In this episode, I explore the science of neuroplasticity and how we can intentionally rewire our brains for greater joy, vibrancy, and connection at any stage of life. We break down why sleep is foundational for lasting change, how stress and challenge act as catalysts for growth, and how intentional practices can direct plasticity toward what truly matters. When we work with the nervous system rather than against it, transformation...

Social media isn’t free—it’s funded by your attention, and the cost is higher than most people realize. What masquerades as poor focus, sleep issues, and low motivation is often something more systemic: an engineered attention economy designed to train your brain for novelty instead of depth. In this episode, I share my personal experience with a digital declutter and unpack how constant scrolling fragments attention, crushes flow, hijacks our dopamine, and our dreams. We explore why “it’s not that bad” and “it’s the world we live in” are usually ego talking, how attention...

Most people stepping into psychedelics today have no idea where this movement came from—and that’s a problem, because the past is often the clearest preview of our future. In this episode, we walk through the three waves of psychedelics: the ancient indigenous roots (and the compelling idea that these medicines may be connected to the origins of major religions), the explosive Western surge of the 1950s–70s after Albert Hofmann’s discovery of LSD and the rise of psilocybin in modern culture, and the counterculture "60s Psychedelic Revolution" peak marked by Tim Leary’s “Tune in....

In 2025, an estimated 10 million Americans are microdosing—up from 8 million in 2023—and this shift isn’t random… it’s a signal. We’re living through rapid cultural change, AI acceleration, nervous system overload, and a mental health crisis that’s pushing people to seek new solutions beyond the old “BS Inc.” defaults of alcohol, pills, and burnout. In this short podcast/YouTube video, I break down what’s driving the rise, how microdosing may support neuroplasticity, adaptability, and emotional resilience, and why responsible use matters. I share how to get the most out of...

A 2024 study found that just 25g of dark chocolate—about 1/3 of a standard bar—can boost cognitive performance and concentration during demanding mental tasks. And honestly… I’m not surprised. My favorite plant medicine might actually be raw, organic cacao. Yes, I love psilocybin (that playful little mushroom) and ayahuasca (which completely re-charted my life). But cacao? I have it almost daily—heart-opening, mood-boosting, and session-supercharging. Before coaching, I’ll grab a square of Taza Wicked Dark 95% and slide straight into flow state—where learning quickens, creativity...

Seven weeks. That’s all it took for my client “Jerry” to go from brain fog, stress, and stagnation… to a $500K consulting opportunity. And that was just the beginning. When we last talked he was billing $160K per month. The real win wasn’t just the big contracts—it was regaining clarity, energy, and alignment. Microdosing was part of the process, but the magic came from stacking intentional practices, reducing stress, and creating space for Possibility. Love, peace + prosperity, Matt
