In this special Thanksgiving episode, Matthew takes a step back from the usual interviews to reflect on one of the most challenging—and transformative—years of his entrepreneurial journey.

From unexpected home renovation delays to juggling two growing businesses and battling through a sudden lapse in business insurance, this episode is a candid look at how setbacks, uncertainty, and “difficult times” can still become moments of growth. Matthew opens up about the pressure, the derailments, and the grind of staying consistent while running a micro-business that never slows down.
