Hi guys,
The book launched four days ago and the support from this community has been unbelievable.
Thank you to each and everyone of you who ordered.
Your support doesn’t go unnoticed. It truly is life changing for me.
I’m already getting so many positive messages from so many of you who binged it (some of you in just a few hours!), and it’s just the best.
Alrigthty, here is a podcast I did about a month ago in Montreal with my best friend and co-writer of Talk To Strangers, Mr. Derin Emre.
Derin is just the best. He doesn’t hold back and in this one we go into where we went after leaving Yes Theory, what it was like tackling such a daunting project together, and our honest opinions about the book.
Prepare yourself for one hell of an honest and hilarious conversation.
Love you all!

Hey all,
Three days away from launch.
And what better way to run this final mile than with my best friend and brother, Ammar. Aka Habibs.
The man who has pushed me to grow more than anyone in my life.
The brother with whom I’ve had the lowest of lows and the highest of highs.
In this podcast we don’t hold back. We show you the hard parts of our relationship and we also share what we mean to each other.
There’s so much here. Per usual, I think you’ll love it.
Thanks for being here. Thanks for riding with me on this journey.
Next time we’ll be talking, the book will be out.
What a wild thought.
Love you so much,
Matt

Hi ladies and gents,
Wow wow wow.
DECEMBER 3RD IS SO CLOSE.
So crazy to think about. So surreal that the launch day is nearly here.
If you want to take advantage of the preorder bonuses like our Live Q&A, raffle to join the launch party in LA, and signed copies, then make sure to preorder at http://www.seekdiscomfort.com/book before November 25th.
If you’ve already ordered or supported in any way, I FREAKING LOVE YOU.
Okay, now to the podcast.
This is one of my best friends. You know him from our videos. This year Staffan Taylor became a full-time host and member of Yes Theory.
He embodies the Yes Theory philosophy more than anyone I’ve ever met.
There’s so much in this conversation that Staffan and I have never shared that will remind anyone watching and/or struggling that they are not alone and things will get better.
Alrighty, that’s enough from me.
Enjoy the pod!
Love ya,
Matt

Hello you lovely people,
What you’re about to watch is the equivalent of finding a never-seen-before species in the wild.
Very few people have shaped Yes Theory as much as Tom. Yet no one outside of our inner circle knows about Tom.
Tom is very private. He likes being behind the scenes.
He’s like Charlie from Charlie’s Angels.
Tom has also never done a podcast. So this is really really special…a moment I’ll cherish for the rest of my life.
We recorded this conversation a few months ago in his home of Brighton, UK.
I think you’re going to love it.
-Matt

November 09, 2023 A conversation with my older brothers (The Buried Life)

Hey everyone,
So happy to be back with you.
Two quick things:
- We have a new book launch date: December 3rd
- We will now be releasing two podcasts a week (Mondays and Thursdays)
- With everything happening in the world, the guys and I want to give back financially to foundations focused on children affected by war. More on that soon.
Alright, now this podcast…
Ben and Dave, my two guests, are not only my close friends but also my biggest inspirations.
When I was 19 I came across a show called The Buried Life. It was about four best friends (Ben, Dave, Duncan and Jonnie) crossing off their bucket list and helping others to do the same.
The Buried Life became the seed and catalyst for Yes Theory, as you’ll learn about in this episode and the book.
Getting to sit down with them to do this was a dream come true. 19 year old Matt would be bugging out if he saw this :)
I hope you’ll get as much out of this conversation as I did. SO many gems!!
Love,
Matt

November 08, 2023 A Pause...
Hey everyone,
We’re putting everything on pause due to what’s happening in the Middle East.
The team and I are figuring out how to act in a constructive way that is aligned with Yes Theory’s value of love over fear.
Sending you all so much love.

October 12, 2023 Book Cover REVEAL!! (and how we got here)
Hey all,
Matt here :)
Thanks for tuning in once again.
Today is a very exciting day…We are FINALLY showing you the book cover.

But that’s not all. In this podcast I sit down with Dez.

Dez is Yes Theory’s social media editor and the brains behind the whole promotion of this book. She even designed the cover with me. All of this to say, I wouldn’t be here without her.
In this episode you’ll get to hear about what the past year has been like for us as we’ve worked to get this book out to all of you.
Hope you enjoy it! And let us know what you think of the cover in the comments!!
Love,
Matt

Hey everyone,
Thomas and I have worked through a lot behind the scenes, especially in the past six months.
It’s been really challenging, and at times our relationship was in serious jeopardy.
Thankfully, we’ve gotten through it.
In this podcast, we dive into all of it. Not just our relationship, but also how we see the world, advice for someone in their 20’s or 30’s, and reflections on our Yes Theory experience.
I’m very grateful this is real life. That my best friend and I get to do this.
Relationships take work, especially through big changes, and this one has been no different.
I hope you’ll get something out of this for your own life and for your ties with those closest to you.
Thank you for the support.
Sending you all love,
Matt

Hey all,
I wanted to introduce you to one of my best friends, Bonnie. Bonnie is a therapist at UCLA and since 2018, has been not only a friend but also pretty much the Yes Theory team therapist. She is a huge part of the book as she’s been an instrumental part of mine and Yes Theory’s growth. For those of you who plan on getting the book, I think this will be especially cool since you’ll get to actually see who she is.
Enjoy!
