Matt Wilson is my guest on this episode (#015) of Process. MI AMIGO!!!

Matt and I go way back to my early days on Twitter. After a few years of exchanging tweets, we finally met up in real life down here in Nicaragua where we hung out with my family, his customers and another blogger. Nowadays, Matt is focusing more than ever on his travel business (Under30Experiences) while always putting his wellbeing first. (He currently lives the surfer-dude life in Costa Rica!)

During our conversation, we cover:

• What spurred him to become an entrepreneur (as far back as the lemonade stand times)
• How he runs his business out of Costa Rica when his team is all in the USA
• The communities he's grown at every stage of his life, and especially now with U30X
• How he balances the fun parts of his job with the not-so-fun parts
• Why and how he is letting go of wanting more
• What he learned about himself (and his ego) through yoga

Here's my favorite quote from our conversation:

"I detached from my business and realized it doesn't mean anything about me."
