In this episode we meet Matt Cone who spent a couple of decades as a tech exec bringing banks to the online world, and helping wealthy families develop philanthropic practices. His life was idyllically traditional with nice homes, kids, vacations and cars.
This changed in 2010, and he has spent the last decade travelling new cultures and exploring consciousness on an inward journey. He now blends his business experience with consciousness practice to aid entrepreneurs to build conscious businesses through the new benefit corporation structure, or B-Corps.
In this show we discuss:
- What happened when Matt was unexpectedly "relieved of his duties" living the American playbook in 2010
- Matt's exploration of consciousness via meditation and the Vipassana meditation retreat model
- The power and value of surrender to what is in the journey of life – especially useful when travelling with a group of 6 women in Asia
– Matt's unique financial Abundance Model which pays dividend by turning a lack mindset into an abundance mindset
- How Matt melded his love of paragliding with conscious business to create a business that makes a major impact in Nepal and, as well as with his guests
- How travel opens the mind to new experiences and ways of living
- The evolution of capitalism and business in the 21st century with the new B-Corporation model and the rise of conscious capitalism
- The importance of self-worth in living a truly abundant life
- How the stories you tell yourself will define your experience.
