About Matthew:

Matthew has enjoyed broad international and intercultural experience in leadership, educational, and consulting roles in Italy, Ireland, England, Colombia, Chile, and Mexico as a Catholic Priest and served as a special Staff Officer and Chaplain in the United States Navy supporting both Sailors and Marines.

To those who have worked with him, Matthew is known to be much more than an executive coach. The 10th of 13 children from small-town New England (no TV at home!), he has more than 30 years of experience in the field of personal, professional, and intercultural leadership development. As a highly versatile coach, advisor, mentor, educator, and confidant, he is considered by some to be a human version of a sophisticated Swiss Army Knife any senior leader would want close by as they strive to properly navigate and excel in multiple areas of personal and professional leadership while safeguarding priorities. He is a frequent podcast guest, given his depth and breadth of knowledge of the human experience and his honest and vulnerable approach during his interviews.

Wendi Bergin hosts Homesteading Made Simple I Joyfully Prepared, a space where the romanticized idea of off-grid living meets the reality of a busy schedule. This podcast is built on the understanding that building a self-reliant life happens in small, consistent steps rather than dramatic leaps. You'll hear conversations that dig into the tangible skills of gardening, food preservation, and kitchen efficiency, all framed around integrating them into the life you already have. Wendi’s approach is notably calm and practical, stripping away the overwhelm often found online. Episodes serve as a guide to building a pantry, understanding food storage, and cultivating a resilient mindset without requiring a hundred acres. The focus is always on the achievable, emphasizing that homesteading is less about a location and more about a set of purposeful, daily choices. Tune in for a common-sense companion on the path to preparedness and greater self-reliance, wherever you happen to be planting your roots.
