Introduction: Meet Matt
Matt’s the kind of guy who seemingly has it all—career, family, hobbies, his health.

One day, he finds himself staring at a spreadsheet, numbers blurring into meaningless digits. It’s not just a computer screen; it’s a mirror reflecting his life—complicated, cluttered, chaotic. Seemingly hopeless.
His finances from the outside-in look great but secretly, he’s burdened by debt & can’t seem to manage his spending.
He has no idea how he’ll ever afford the future he hopes for.
That’s when he knows, it’s time for a change.
