Summary

Matthew McConaughey is an Actor, Producer, and Author. That’s right, author Matthew McConaughey. In this episode, he and Jen discuss his book Greenlights and delve into his own personal outlooks and strategies throughout his life. From making a list of goals in 1992 that he forgot about and found later in life only to discover he accomplished them all to traveling to Africa in pursuit of a recurring dream and wrestling a huge villager name Michelle, McConaughey brings us through the strength of his resolve, his faith, his family, and his journey to work on the path to your own success. Maybe you only know him as an actor. Maybe you’ve seen interviews or his famous Oscar Winner speech about chasing himself down 10 years later, or maybe you somehow don’t know him at all. Whether or not that’s the case his stories and nuggets of wisdom are something anyone can find value in to “just keep livin.” Youtube Link to This Episode Matthew’s Instagram Matthew’s Book ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Did you learn something from tuning in today?

First of all, I want to say thank you very much for being on the podcast. I'm sure you've

0:24.8

been doing a ton of media for your book and getting asked the same questions over and

0:29.9

over again can be kind of monotonous. So I do appreciate you humoring me and my audience.

0:36.3

One more time.

0:37.3

I have to be honest. I am enjoying it. I go off and I sell movies. I'm in. I solicit them

0:45.8

and share them. But this one's the true extension of me. So I'm like, I don't have to prepare

1:48.4
