EP117: From Wall Street To Purpose: Matt Blair’s Leap Into Meaningful Impact

On this episode of "Into the Unknown" What does it take to walk away from Wall Street and redefine success on your own terms? In this heartfelt conversation, Matt Blair shares how the quiet dissatisfaction of corporate life collided with a deeper calling to serve — and how one pivotal moment, encouraged by his wife and driven by fatherhood, changed everything.

He opens up about building a commercial real estate fund with his father, why he believes small balance investors deserve access to generational wealth opportunities, and how embracing uncertainty became the most freeing decision of his life.

This episode isn’t just about entrepreneurship — it’s about listening to the internal whisper that says you were made for more. Matt’s journey from cubicle burnout to mission-driven founder is packed with insights for anyone standing at their own fork in the road. Whether you're craving purpose, considering a bold leap, or simply looking for inspiration to push forward, this episode offers an honest, grounded look at what it means to risk stability for something that actually matters.
