reDESIGN: How it Started

 

I have so much I want to share, so I’m putting it here… a place where I can air out all my excitement without feeling insecure about cluttering a chat thread with all the details. I’ve joined a Mind Set program, Transform, let by Matt Poechman and Tamar Altschuler. I first met Matt in March of 2025 at Squad Up, a gathering of real estate investors, and I was immediately drawn to his energy and optimism. He was so positive and charismatic; sincere and well spoken. I followed him on Instagram that weekend after finding out he had a coaching presence, but had neither any intention nor expectation of ever speaking to him again. Fast forward to June 19th.

I received a message from Matt via Instagram, “Hey Cat, just saw your follow! Where are you based in? I’m in Toronto.” I thought it was odd that he was reaching out. Does he reach out to all his new followers, and three months later at that? I ignored his message because I assumed that he wrongly believed I was and investor, so why waste his time. Four days later, on June 23, he wrote again, “Cat?” I saw his note, but still was so puzzled as to why he cared so much to chat me, not once, but twice. My plan was to ignore his message. (Not gonna lie, as a woman, when a man reaches out on chat, it raises caution for me and I didn’t need any complications to my already complicated life.) I did, however, go to his website via his IG profile and looked at his Transform program. It was interesting, but I was already just scraping by with time and did not imagine myself to have any time to add such a journey or expense to my life.

A four hours later, I received an inner nudge… Something inside of me caused me to go back to his chat. I responded. “Hi! Sorry for the delay. I’m in Md just outside of DC. A newbie (to real estate). It was really a pleasure meeting you at squad up. You are a very gifted motivator. I  have a question… I was just looking over your content and checked out your transform program. Is it ever not for somebody? I’m actually kind of interested in exploring it, but I feel like my life is so busy that I don’t have much time for anything except the next five minutes. How do I know if this is something I could do?”

He responded, “Excellent, well here is what I can tell you. If you don’t change anything, how will you ever have time, peace and stillness in your life? Our Transform program has been changing countless lives especially in our communities Subto and Owners Club. Time commitment for the program is 15-20 min daily video with 10 minutes workbook. So half hour a day and you’re on your way to calmness, a new way of thinking and sending our the vibration that will actually attract all the abundance that you have been struggling to attain until now. Never any pressure. You let me know if you’d like to have a call or if you are ready to completely transform your life, energy, relationships, business and future.”

Couldn’t hurt to learn about such a possibility, right? This was a free info session at best. We scheduled a call for July 2nd, 2025. What has ensued since speaking to Matt has been nothing short of life-changing. I joined the program, attended my first meeting that night, and am full speed ahead. I turn 50 today and I am already seeing positive changes in my life, ones I NEVER thought I was capable of. I feel compelled to make my journey public because Transform has already given me the tools to implement radical change in just a short week and I feel it so exciting, I need to share it. Should you find yourself reading this, perhaps it’s time you considered imagining your own new possibilities! Follow along!
