In this solo episode, Matt breaks down the core beliefs that define high agency—an empowering mindset rooted in action, clarity, and personal responsibility. Inspired by George Mack’s High Agency essay, Matt explores five foundational beliefs that high agency people carry and shares practical exercises you can start using today to apply them in your own life.

You’ll learn:
– Why leaving isn’t impossible
– How to stop waiting for permission
– What it means to design your own path
– Why “normal” is overrated
– And how to take action right now—even in the middle of the chaos

This episode is for anyone who feels stuck, hesitant, or overwhelmed by someone else’s addiction, emotional immaturity, or the fear of making the “wrong” move. High agency isn’t something you’re born with—it’s something you build.

Paige will return for Part Two, where they’ll continue this conversation and expand it even further.
