Hey everyone,

Thomas and I have worked through a lot behind the scenes, especially in the past six months. It’s been really challenging, and at times our relationship was in serious jeopardy.

Thankfully, we’ve gotten through it.

In this podcast, we dive into all of it. Not just our relationship, but also how we see the world, advice for someone in their 20’s or 30’s, and reflections on our Yes Theory experience.

I’m very grateful this is real life. That my best friend and I get to do this.

Relationships take work, especially through big changes, and this one has been no different. I hope you’ll get something out of this for your own life and for your ties with those closest to you.

Thank you for the support.

Sending you all love,

Matt
