Did you know that the dynamics of our family of origin determines the quality of our relationships? But did you also know that it also determines our level of success and finances that we will have in our lives? I often talk about the hidden dynamics that are underpinning the challenges that we have in our lives as the most critical things to address rather than focussing on addressing the symptom as that only scratches the surface! For me this is the most powerful podcast that I have done so far, you can't miss it!

Published through Ingram and available through Amazon and all major booksellers, the book is written for anyone looking to re-evaluate or improve their intimate relationship and it’s full of practical wisdom and concepts gleaned from the many years of work that Matt has undertaken alongside his wife Rebeca supporting couples and individuals to have relationships that really serve them.

“The book is partly autobiographical in that it reveals some of the challenges that I went through in making sense of the toxic relationship that I found myself in. It took time to make sense of that and the support, mentoring and coaching that I had through that process was truly life changing.” Matt explains.

Matt is joined today by Rhys Thomas who is a keynote speaker and mental health advocate and who is going to be joining the launch event for the book. You can find out more about his work at:
