Matt Kelly is an entrepreneur and designer.

He previously scaled two companies (Neon Beach and Midnight City) to a combined $1 million/month in monthly revenue, only to have it all come crashing down due to logistical issues and scaling too quickly. In that process, he hit rock bottom mentally.

Today, he starts the comeback. His latest company is called Space Goods, which aims to be a beautifully designed, next-generation wellness brand.

In this conversation, we spoke about Matt's mental health, dealing with hate online, cynical optimism, and his four pillars.
