When work becomes an expression of who you are.

Stop surviving the ‘dream’ job. Start living your true calling.

Hi, I’m Mathis.

After 14 years of leading UX Research at companies like Google X, I now help successful tech professionals who feel burned out, unfulfilled or stuck in a “golden cage” redesign their careers around purpose, meaning and the life they actually want.

Without sacrificing everything they’ve worked so hard to build.

MY APPROACH

Career fulfillment has many colors. For you, that might mean staying where you are and reshaping your role, moving to a more aligned team or company, or making a bolder shift. My approach helps you to prototype and try your new chapter before quitting your old one. As a result, work shifts from draining your energy to fueling your creativity, joy, and aliveness. I designed a safe space for you to:

1 | Remember: Reconnect with your dreams and gifts to remember who you are and what you came here to do.

2 | Release: Learn skills to overcome fear, self-doubt and limiting beliefs.

3 | Redesign: Create and try your path and make decisions aligned with what matters most to you.

LEARN WHAT YOU RECLAIM

4 | Realize: Take goal-aligned action with confidence and clarity.

WORKING WITH ME

I know what it’s like to be successful but unfulfilled. I spent 14 years inside elite tech innovation, learning firsthand that a 'dream career' on paper doesn't guarantee a fulfilled life.

I realized that finding and following our true purpose is the secret to producing our finest work.

Now, I think of my work as a 'calling' to help tech professionals and teams transition from 'surviving the grind' to working with purpose, passion and aliveness.

I weave together modern psychology & coaching with ancient wisdom, grounded in mindfulness and yoga.

Stories of Aligning Work With Who You Are

Maya Sueno

UX Research Manager, Ex-Google

Before
 On paper, Maya had it all:
– A prestigious Silicon Valley name on the resume & high compensation
– A 15% raise during company-wide layoffs & early promotion into management

Inside, Maya felt burned out, overwhelmed, and quietly disconnected from what truly mattered to her.

After
She stepped out of the manager role, realizing it was never her dream. Through our work, Maya gave herself permission to question a path that looked “right” but didn’t feel right.
Today, Maya is building an independent, location-flexible career she controls. She enjoys working from anywhere and runs UX trainings for companies.

Patricia Machado

CX Insights Manager, Ex-Meta

TAKEAWAY
Just because you can succeed at something doesn’t mean it’s what you’re meant to do.

Before
Patricia came to me carrying a quiet grief.
She had a lifelong dream of becoming a filmmaker, and felt she was wasting her life working in tech, building someone else’s dream instead of her own.

After
Today, Patricia isn’t dreaming about filmmaking anymore, she is a filmmaker.

Together, we reframed her relationship to work and creativity.
Instead of seeing tech and art as competing forces, Patricia learned how to integrate them.
Now, she is intentional about her time and energy, and her team supports her creative path. She attended 2 screenwriter residencies, finished her first feature script, and has a clear timeline to fully transition into her new path.

TAKEAWAY
You don’t have to quit your job to honor who you are and what makes you come alive.

TESTIMONIALS

  • "Mathis is an incredible coach who understands our tech world better than anyone I know. His background across research, design, and development speaks for itself, he’s genuinely one of the most impressive technologists I’ve had the opportunity to interact with. But what makes his work particularly meaningful to me is his focus on something that can easily get lost in our industry: personal fulfillment. His coaching sessions, and mindfulness classes have helped me think differently about purpose in my own life, and unexpectedly, that has given me more purpose and energy in my work too.”
