Hi guys, My name is Matt Rieck and I met Dr. and Mrs. Folsom with a group of clients about 4 years ago at the Wolf Tribe Sanctuary near Palmdale Ca. At the time I was a Director in HR, about 50 pounds overweight, recently divorced, had depression, was totally broke and in debt, and absolutely miserable in my personal life. Philip was putting on a workshop on Positive Masculine Leadership that resonated with me personally in such a prominent way that i largely credit it as the genesis of all the success that followed over the next 4 years. Long after the workshop, Philip stayed and talked with anyone that wanted time with him, and thank goodness I had enough balls to be able to ask him directly what he was doing to look and feel so good, being even older than me, because i was shitting the bed when it came to that. He talked to me about getting on Testosterone Replacement Therapy under a Doctor, and talked to me about how important it was to prioritize your own goals and happiness, so that you could be a good example for others. The whole "you can't pour from an empty cup speech" really sank in with me. I had been a weak people pleaser my whole life until that point, and always worried about everyone else before taking care of myself. Fast forward to 4 years later, I completely transformed my life by losing 50 pounds, becoming a Chief of HR (a long time career dream), and even to now starting my own company. We are all always still a work in progress, but this is absolutely the happiest I have ever been in my entire life. I live now in a way aligned with my goals and work tirelessly to achieve them. Just wanted to a make a post to say thank you to Dr. Folsom for what he did for me that day. Both his example and his words allowed me to see that the version of myself that I had accepted, did not have to be where I stayed if I was not happy with it. -Matt
