In this episode, Matt sits down with one of his closest friends and former coach, Mike Schumm, a master-level mentor with more than 30,000 coaching calls and 35+ years of entrepreneurial experience. Together they unpack the habits, rhythms, and mindset of high-performing leaders who are thriving not just in business — but in life.

Mike shares the journey behind his new company, Profits Coaching, and explains why success isn’t about scaling endlessly or chasing vanity metrics — it’s about building a business that serves your family, your purpose, and your future.

This conversation goes deep into the heart of what makes sustainable success possible — from managing marriage and business dynamics to scheduling what matters most. You’ll learn:

• Why the most successful leaders schedule family time first.
• The difference between profitability and vanity metrics (and why revenue doesn’t equal success).
• How burnout often begins at home, not at work.
• The one question every entrepreneur should ask to start living a truly One Life.
• Why harmony, not balance, is the real goal.

Key Themes & Takeaways

• Profit > Revenue: Bigger isn’t always better. Profit and purpose create freedom.
• Harmony over Balance: Schedule family and rest the same way you schedule business.
• Faith, Family, Business Alignment: A thriving business starts with healthy relationships.
• Identity Check: You are not your job title — your work is a vehicle, not your worth.
• Reverse Engineering Success: Build your life calendar first, then your business around it.
• Define Success for Yourself: Don’t let the industry prescribe your scoreboard.
