Reflections from a builder, operator, and reinvention partner 1. WHAT is success? Success isn’t one-size-fits-all. For me, it’s about surrounding myself with people, capital partners, collaborators, and teams—who share my values and care about the same outcomes I do. Alignment is everything. Success is the quality of people you surround yourself with—and ensuring they’re aligned with what you care about. 2. HOW do you achieve it? By stepping into complexity and finding the opportunity others overlook. Rolling up your sleeves, doing the work, and being curious. 3. IF you’re stuck, what do you do? Reconnect with what has always driven you—even if your current role doesn’t. Don’t be afraid to try something new 4. WHEN do you know it’s time to evolve? When your comfort zone starts to feel like a cage You know it’s time to evolve when the version of success you’re living no longer feels like yours. What Tom Matt’s Audience Should Know About Me 1. I build things—from the ground up and the inside out. I’ve led startups, raised capital, fixed broken systems, and helped organizations grow through transition. Whether launching a proptech platform for aging adults or leading growth at a private equity firm focused on special-situation tech companies, I know how to build value where others see complexity. 2. I’ve reinvented myself—and helped others do the same. I’ve shifted from founder to investor, from mission-driven tech to buyouts, and from operating a company to advising others. Reinvention isn’t just a theme for me—it’s a lived experience. I help leaders and organizations navigate those same crossroads with clarity and confidence. 3. I’m values-driven—but results-oriented. I believe in doing meaningful work—but it must work. I’ve built business models that are financially sustainable, and mission aligned. I care deeply about impact, aging, housing, and equity—but I lead with discipline, accountability, and data. 4. I don’t believe success is one-size-fits-all. Titles, exits, and metrics matter—but what really matters is whether your life and work reflect who you are and what you value. I’ve helped founders, executives, and platforms recalibrate not just what they’re doing—but why.

For his 30th visit to our program Craig Stiles, Ameriprise Financial, the #FinancialFitness topic on our show is HUGE! Rest assured everything is going to be fine. For example here is an article supporting this episode from Edward Jones Investment- Overall, stock markets have rebounded nicely over the last two weeks with the S&P 500 up about 8%, as first-quarter data has held up and policymakers seem to be making progress on trade. Keep in mind that two or three pullbacks are normal in any year, especially as markets digest potentially higher inflation and softer growth. Nonetheless, we may see better sentiment heading into year-end, as the Federal Reserve likely lowers interest rates, and earnings growth looks to recover heading into 2026.

Robert Bryce is our guest for this episode, and we talk all things energy in 2025. Spain's push for net-zero backfires with crippling power outage across 2 nations . Government explanations fall short as experts point to complications related to the renewable energy transition. One of the first claims about what happened there was a so-called "induced atmospheric vibration." That happens when there are rapid changes in the weather that alter the oscillations in the electric grid’s overhead lines, according to Professor Jianzhong Wu at the University of Cardiff focuses on Multi-Vector Energy Systems. He is also an electric grid expert, among other things. However, Wu was not convinced that "vibration" caused the outage. "I am not aware of extreme weather conditions in Spain today (my daughter is on a School trip in Spain, and she told me the weather was really nice there), so I am not sure whether this is the real cause," Wu wrote in an article for the Science Media Centre on the same day as the outage.
