Embrace Your Weirdness!
Hey I’m Matthew, I’m the Misfit Coach - a counselor and a coach who helps other Misfits - introverts, weirdos, geeks, and freaks - achieve their goals and find the divine purpose for which they were created.
​
I use an approach that is as varied as we are: individual coaching, group coaching, and classes - all designed to help YOU be the most awesome YOU that YOU are.
What makes my process unique?
LISTENING AND UNDERSTANDING
I'm not a coach who says "I know your path." I listen to you, find your strengths, and help you apply those to your journey
FORWARD FOCUSING
If you're a misfit, you have been misunderstood by those closest to you.
We don't live in that past though - we look at our future obstacles and how we can overcome them
One of the keys to overcoming our goals is found in video games - we overcome small obstacles to gain experience for the bigger ones. This is a key in all of my coaching.
The last key to being a misfit is that, while there aren't others identical to us, there are others who feel the same way. The Misfit Refuge is a place for us to connect and encourage each other.

The Misfit Mentor Story
There are a lot of coaches out there. And so many of them start with confidence. Belonging. They are amazing Captain Americas.
And then there are those of us with superpowers that are understated, underdeveloped, and underappreciated.
When I started on my career path, I had high expectations of what God was going to do through me; but when I didn’t add up to man’s expectations, I found myself completely lost.
It took more than a degree to shape my superpowers - rejection, comparison, failure. I’m not invincible. The fires of trials have burned me. And upon getting through them, I looked back and tried to find more of the lost to bring through.
That’s where I found you.
