An Interview with Matt Sewell, Career Ownership Coach™

In this inspiring episode, Grace Fountain sits down with Matt Sewell, a Career Ownership Coach™ with The Entrepreneur’s Source®. Matt shares how he went from leading privacy initiatives at Meta to helping people take control of their careers through business ownership. Burned out from laying people off and longing for more meaningful work, Matt made a courageous pivot into coaching—now guiding others to discover what’s possible when they shift their mindset from “employment” to “ownership.”

Matt opens up about his personalized approach to coaching, starting with understanding his clients’ motivations, goals, and financial realities. He dives deep into how he uses behavior assessments, goal mapping, and discovery tools to help clients identify paths they may have never considered—including franchising. With insight, patience, and the heart of a true mentor, Matt challenges limiting beliefs, pressures assumptions, and opens doors to transformation.

You’ll also hear real stories from Matt’s coaching journey—like the client who overcame imposter syndrome and fear to open her own successful recruiting firm, and another who almost made a quick decision but, with Matt’s guidance, slowed down to discover an even better fit.
