With Christmas just over a week away, Matt reflects on a year defined less by visible milestones and more by internal growth. After missing a day of recording and choosing to simply begin again, he’s reminded that building a new venture — and a meaningful life — requires honoring quiet wins. Inspired by a friend’s metaphor of the tea bowl, this episode explores why clarity, presence, and inner steadiness matter more than external metrics, especially at the end of a demanding year.
