We feel strongly about supporting the growth of talented young guys with big dreams. Men in their early 20s today are faced with a mounting number of traps that society has set for them, and it's easy to fall into those traps without the proper friend group, motivations, and guidance. That's why we were excited to have on Matt Worthington, a 24 year old author, podcaster, super connector, and entrepreneur based here in Austin. Matt's the author of the book Ultra Productive and host of the Riser Podcast. He's been featured in New York Weekly Magazine and Business Insider. Just an all-around great dude as well!

We were first introduced to Matt through a random encounter at the gym, and have since attended one of his famous Jeffersonian-style dinners he hosts in town to bring together a diverse group of change makers in the Austin area. Matt's maturity and discipline have granted him success early in his 20s, and the fun part is he's just getting started. We wanted to bring Matt on as an example of a young man carving out an unconventional path. He shared his insights into frameworks he's used and lessons he's learned to put him in a place to continue to meet great people and build community in Austin. If you're a young guy in his 20s, please give this one a listen!
