Read this (+ previous posts) online Read time: 3 minutes What if you loved the "grind?" Let's play today. BTW, don't miss this special event (my gift to you). The Secret“Grind.” You’re done with it, aren’t you? Yesterday in our group coaching session, that word came up and the energy shifted instantly. You could feel people tense across the screen, shoulders tight, jaws clenched. That visceral reaction told me everything. Because the Forced Grind was never our choice. It was handed to us, expected, demanded. We were taught to accept the Corporate Cage. But something powerful happened in that moment. I got choked up sharing with my clients that there’s another way: the Purposeful Grind. The kind that makes your heart race with excitement on Monday mornings. The kind you can’t wait to dive into every single day. I know you’re the high-achieving type. Like all my clients, you’re not meant to just “turn off the engine.” You’re meant to redirect that powerful energy into something magnificent. Imagine a life where:
In Uncaged Life Design, we don’t just quit corporate cold turkey. We’re smarter than that. We methodically ramp down corporate life while building entrepreneurial freedom that gives you everything you’re looking for — not just in your career, but in your entire life. I work as hard as I ever have, but it doesn’t feel like work at all. My income has surpassed what I made in corporate (which is saying something), but that’s become the least interesting part. I get to coach my son’s baseball team, build a business that profoundly transforms lives (as witnessed in person at our first retreat), and create ripple effects I never imagined possible when purely working in the Forced Grind. Has it been challenging? Absolutely. Worth it? Beyond measure. Every day, I witness this transformation in others:
I want this for you. I want you to feel your heart catch fire. To have your family witness you step into your power. To know in your bones that you’re living your purpose. You have a choice now. The Forced Grind — draining your energy, missing life’s precious moments, living for weekends and vacations. Or the Purposeful Grind — working hard but feeling alive, present, and on fire with possibility. One depletes you. The other ignites you. One slowly dims your light. The other lets you shine. One serves someone else’s dream. The other builds yours. My heart swells with gratitude as I write this. Each morning, coffee in hand, I feel energized with purpose — we view our mission as literally "saving lives." For Cecilia and I, this isn’t just our work. It's our calling. And we're profoundly grateful for the chance to share it with you. My deepest wish is for you to arrive here too. ❤️🔥 With a heart on fire, Matt PS - Want to create this life in 2025?
