What do our mind-body connection, the natural elements (Fire, Air, Water and Earth) and personality traits all have in common? For Matt, the answers came more than half a lifetime ago when a profound experience instilled him with a foundation for personal growth that he has relied on ever since. Among all else, he shares that unique story along with insights about self-identity, sizing others up, interpersonal skills and managing conflict.

In highlighting this vital and timely topic, Matt changes the show format for a candid conversation with Dr. Lisa Horowitz, a staff scientist and pediatric psychologist from the National Institute of Mental Health. Leaving no detail unspoken, they address mental health, suicide and the actions necessary to save lives, including those of at-risk children and young adults. Suicide either does or could affect anyone and everyone. It’s time to shatter the stigma once and for all.

Here to provide a healthy infusion of fresh insights is former NFL player and American Ninja Warrior Anthony Trucks who is now CEO of Identity Shift, which is also the title of his forthcoming book. Anthony shows how to make great shift happen, especially in these shifting times.

It literally shapes our world – from our happiness and inner monologue to how we interpret our interactions and size up others. Perception is truly foundational to our quality of life. The good news is that we have the ability and opportunity to assert our free will to make choices about how we perceive our experiences. Being objective and maintaining an amplified awareness about our perceptions will foster a more accurate and optimistic reality (at least that’s my perception).
