Episode 22 of Both Sides of the Check features entrepreneur Martel Matthews, who opens up about how losing his mother—the “Superwoman” who inspired his journey—forced him to rethink everything about life and business.

In this powerful conversation, Martel shares:

  • How grief pushed him into work mode, but faith brought him back into alignment 🙏🏾
  • The role spirituality plays in becoming the best version of yourself, both in business and in life ✨
  • Why “celebrating the wins” is essential in entrepreneurship 🏆
  • The raw truth: why being an entrepreneur can feel like stepping into the ring with Mike Tyson 🥊
  • His top mindset & book recommendations for entrepreneurs (Think and Grow Rich, The Alchemist, The Slight Edge, and of course…the Bible 📖)

This episode is about more than business—it’s about healing, faith, and the mindset required to keep moving forward no matter what life throws at you.
