Matthew Abrams: How to Reach Your Fullest Potential - Revisited","description":"<p><strong><em>“I actually am more brother and sister with people that are across incredibly diverse paths and walks of life than I had ever imagined.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><p><br></p><p>I feel super pumped to re-release this powerful episode almost three years after I first recorded it. But as I listened back, it struck me how relevant this conversation is to the world we’re experiencing now.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>I first met Matthew Abrams when he was facilitating a mastermind. At the time, I was starting to dive into my inner work with more depth and intensity and Matthew stood out for me as someone who’d really mastered this dimension. I noticed it in his presence, in the way he communicated, and in the way he was able to hold space for people from all walks of life - and then guide them forward powerfully.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>This episode is about collective evolution as much as it is about individual development.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Matthew addresses the sensitive issue of privilege, religion, and the barriers to wholeness in ourselves and as a collective. Could understanding that we all have a different piece of the puzzle help us find common ground and unite as one?&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><strong><em>“If you don’t know the injustices that we live in, in these days, you’re hiding under a rock.”</em></strong></p><p><br></p><p>In his work, Matthew is a facilitator who supports entrepreneurs and leadership teams through the EOS framework. EOS is a proven system that’s been implemented into thousands of companies with resounding and consistent success. Matthew is part of a small, global team who’s been trained in these processes.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Here’s a taste of what you’ll experience:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Why did Matt's life begin when he was 27.</li><li>The role of curiosity in our lives.&nbsp;</li><li>Privilege: How society supports Matt to NOT be curious about himself and how it influences how he sees the world.&nbsp;</li><li>What causes ‘otherness’, religion, and how we get fragmented as humans. [</li><li>The conversation Matthew has with his fears when they show up.</li><li>The 5% ‘edge’ - why we avoid it, and why it’s where the magic sits.&nbsp;</li><li>The story of Matthew’s parents’ divorce.</li><li>The discipline to do the ‘work’ and two powerful reflection questions to ask yourself.</li><li>And more...</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Brace yourselves for a deep discussion about courage, curiosity, and the need to understand yourself - so you can understand others. It’s a conversation that can get uncomfortable. Matthew acknowledges this, but inspires us to go to the uncomfortable edge because that’s where all the growth lies.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>I was so inspired by Matt’s presence and his philosophies - and Im sure you will feel exactly the same.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><strong><em>“There’s something in the space between you and me, that’s magic. And only together through curiosity and exploration and a commitment to that pursuit, can we find it.”</em></strong></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><strong>How to contact&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li>Check out the work Matthew does with leadership teams in companies and how supports CEOs and founders at <a href=\"http://www.matthew-abrams.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">www.matthew-abrams.com</a>.&nbsp;</li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.
