A guide to navigating “the rodeo of life”.

Academy Award–winning actor and #1 New York Times bestselling author Matthew McConaughey is a husband and a father, an eternal optimist, a hopeful skeptic, and a man of faith who believes that we should all start sellin’ Sunday morning like a Saturday night. His latest book is Poems and Prayers.

In this episode we talk about:

What Matthew’s prayer practice looks like
How to figure out what your beliefs are
His relationship with doubt and humility
How to reframe your relationship with failure, risk, and embarrassment
Morning rituals and how to prepare for the day
Sins, cynicism, and what to do when things get hard
Matthew’s take on the world
Misconceptions of ‘good’ and ‘evil’
The difference between ‘hope’ and ‘belief’
Why “belief is punk rock”
And more
