Matt and I met a couple years ago when he was a basketball coach at Bard College. Today, he’s started his own business coaching business - Matt Alfonso, LLC.
He grew up in a sports family and has always been involved in basketball, formerly a physical education coach in Virginia. His dad was also a teacher, principal, and professor, inspiring Matt to learn life lessons through sports and in turn, teach those himself.
After college, Matt fought depression and anxiety. As a perfectionist, he was too hard on himself and struggled to manage his mental health. He recognized the problems and overcame them with therapy, mindfulness, and self-love and utilized these skills learned in his leadership coaching.
