Plus, when you show appreciation to others, it strengthens your relationships and helps you handle whatever life throws your way.

I'm grateful for my health, my family, my friends, my clients, and my community.

And I'm especially grateful for getting clear on my personal mission:

To inspire others to become the best version of themselves and supporting entrepreneurs and business owners and leaders to realize their full potential

You can read more about my journey and my life's vision.

This clarity didn't happen overnight. I spent 17 years building a consulting practice, bootstrapped a business from $0 to $25M in 5 years, and led a $100M global operation at woom. Almost two years ago, I successfully transitioned all my operational responsibilities to an incredible team—and they're now having the best year in woom's history.

That transition has given me something priceless: the freedom to do what I love most—give back and help others.

Here's what that looks like right now:

1. Advisory & Coaching Practice​
I work one-on-one with business owners and executives who are ready to level up. I keep my practice intentionally small to ensure deep, meaningful work—and I currently have room for two more clients.

2. Men's Transition & Optimization Coaching​
I support business owners and leaders through personalized, customized programs during difficult times of transition—helping them transform into a more fulfilled life. I am accepting new clients into my program now.

3. Birthing of Giants Program​
I'm the Regional Cohort Leader for this transformative program—and I'm building my first cohort right here in Austin, Texas starting with an info session in January 2026.

I'm hosting my first in-person info session on January 15th in Austin to share more about the program and answer questions. The first cohort will launch in February 2026 with an amazing group of leaders ready to take their businesses—and themselves—to the next level.

Reflecting on My Recent Event:

An Evening of Women Founders and Community

Wednesday night at The New Modern Austin Residences Penthouse was electric with possibility and connection. From the moment guests stepped into that stunning 53rd floor penthouse, you could feel something special unfolding. The energy in the room was palpable—14 female founders, each with their own incredible story, mingling with 50 supporters who genuinely cared about seeing them succeed.

Five founders took the stage and captivated the audience with raw, authentic stories about their entrepreneurial journeys.

​

Thank you for being part of my community. Your support means more than you know.

Wishing you and yours a beautiful Thanksgiving,

Mathias
