When will you take your dream off the backburner?

Matthias helps with the bigger questions in life.

Sometimes our dreams take the backseat. In this case, the physician spent his whole life caring for others, treating patients, training doctors and, in his spare time, launching a nonprofit. He and his wife, a retired occupational therapist, put their all into the organization. But while they were experts in patient care, they were novices at nonprofit operations. That’s when they called Matthias. After restructuring the organization, his wife had everything she needed to take over — and he finally had a moment to breathe. So we asked him something he never asked himself: What is it that you want in life? And with a bucket list goal on the table, Matthias went to work to make his childhood dream come true.
