From Fat Banker to IRONMAN: The Challenge That Changed Everything with Matt Davies
Description
In this episode of 9-5 Exit Plan, I sit down with former banking and finance professional turned performance coach Matt Davies.
After more than two decades climbing the corporate ladder, Matt reached a point where his career, health, and lifestyle no longer felt aligned with the person he wanted to become.
Then he made an unlikely decision: he signed up for an IRONMAN.
With no previous experience, no bike, and no real plan, Matt went from “Fat Banker” to IRONMAN in around six months.
But the physical transformation was only the beginning.
The bigger transformation was his identity.
Matt eventually walked away from his corporate career and built a new life as a performance coach, helping ambitious people use challenge as a catalyst for personal transformation.
We discuss corporate burnout, identity, health, courage, leaving a successful career, entrepreneurship, performance, and why sometimes the best way to change your life is to deliberately do something difficult.
If you’ve ever looked successful on the outside but felt completely disconnected from the life you were living, this conversation is for you.
