Here we are – our final episode of 2020! Today we have the MOST perfect way to round out the year – chatting with Matt co-founder of Made of Tomorrow.

You'll most likely know these guys from their iconic diaries, which not only look beautiful, but are made from recycled coffee cups (and entirely made right here in New Zealand). Made of Tomorrow also have an amazing range of homewares – all minimal and functional objects, carefully designed and manufactured from high quality materials in New Zealand.

Matt runs Made of Tomorrow with his partner Dan, from their base in Papamoa, where they moved in January before the madness of this year began. They ran a previous business together, which we'll hear a little about, and recently sold it – giving them an amazing base to run Made of Tomorrow in a truely thoughtful and deliberate manner, I really admire Matt's approach and outlook on the rollercoaster that is business, which you'll hear all about.

This chat is the most perfect way to wrap up Pep Talk for the year, and get you guys (and me!) inspired and excited for next year and more good stuff to come – I can't wait for you to hear it, so let's go...

The day before we chatted, Matt and Dan just released a whole range of beautiful new products, including some perfect Christmas gifting pieces. Make sure you head to their website if you have a few final Christmas presents to tick off (or just because!). Check out madeoftomorrow.com and @madeoftomorrow on socials to see a bit more about what Matt and Dan are all about.
