About this Interview:

I met Chris through an online “Mastermind” Friday morning video call I do weekly. I was able to hang out with Chris in person in Nashville and it’s there I realized he would be a great candidate for WCA. Chris joins me for a chat about diet, money, his involvement in the French Canadian Christian music scene, and his home studio build. -Matt

Chris Selim’s Bullet Proof Coffee : Try at your own risk 😉

The regular recipe is One big cup of black coffee… 1 tbsp of grass fed unsalted butter… 1tbsp coconut oil… A bit of natural vanilla extract… A bit of cinnamon powder…
But if this is your first time, cut the butter and coconut oil quantity in half. – Chris

This show is such a great resource for not only recording, but about hearing about the mindsets of his guests. EVERY guest is so open about their journey, but it’s Matt who is the real star; so natural and welcoming. Great show! Making my way through them all!
Honestly the best.

Love the relaxed feel of this show. It’s like a fireside chat. Matt is a great host, the guests are always interesting. A great listen for those of us who make our livings on the other side of the glass.
An invaluable resource

I discovered these a couple years back, and as a noob to the audio roundtable, these episodes have been an invaluable resource for information and inspiration.

Not only is the WCA podcast the start of my week, but I've found myself binge listening through the archives on weekends. Whether from Matt, or one of his guests, or both-----I get something out of every episode!
