#9: Matthias Schmitt - Living a life of purpose after reaching success
What a great episode on the Journey of highs and lows of reaching success with my good friend Matthias. We talk about a lot in this podcast from burnout to success, doing the inner work, emotional mastery and living a life of purpose. I hope you all enjoy.Matthias co-founded two thriving companies in tech and events straight out of university, achieving financial success but finding himself in a deep state of misery—battling panic attacks, drinking problems, and compulsive sex and porn use. Despite his external achievements, he felt completely empty and disconnected.Realizing that money alone wasn’t the answer, he made the bold decision to exit and search for what was missing. For a while, he felt on top of the world—until everything crumbled. A year-long depression followed, marked by suicidal thoughts and a profound identity crisis. He had lost his hunger, his sense of self, and his purpose.The turning point came when he sought guidance from a mentor and recognized that he had been living out of alignment with his true self. He finally faced his fears, insecurities, and patterns of seeking external validation—something he continues to work on to this day.Through deep inner work, including meditation, nervous system regulation, NLP, life coaching, and other transformational tools, Matthias found his way from darkness to joy, purpose, and fulfilment. Now, he channels his hard-earned wisdom into coaching programs, speeches, and workshops, working with founders and conscious leaders to help them build lives in full alignment with their highest mission.LinksMatthiasschmitt.euInsta: Matthias.schmitt.officialIf you enjoyed this message make sure to subscribe
