He starts with the power of giving, not just money, but your time, energy, and attention. Giving is the foundation of a meaningful life. But just as important is the ability to receive, to be open, to be vulnerable, and to let others support you when you need it. Matt talks about the strength in saying no, setting boundaries, and protecting your time so you can focus on what truly matters. He also discusses the often-overlooked courage it takes to ask for help, and why that can be the most powerful move of all.
