Work with Matthew

The health of your organization runs deeper than the numbers

Matthew Missimer works with executives and founders at the intersection of two things most organizations treat as separate — financial health and human health. With over 20 years in financial services and as Co-Founder and CEO of The Motion of Gratitude™, he brings a perspective that's rare: the ability to see how an organization's systems, culture, and capacity are all part of the same picture — and to work on all of them at once.

Most leaders are managing both problems at once — a business that needs to run better and a team that needs to feel better. Matthew is one of the few people who works on both, and whose background was built for exactly this intersection.

The Thread

Financial health and human health are the same problem

Organizations on financial autopilot are spending from fear — not from clarity, not from intention, not from a genuine understanding of what their numbers mean for their people and their future.

That's the same dysregulation The M of G Method addresses in individuals. The nervous system running survival mode instead of presence mode. The difference is one shows up in behavior and the other shows up in a P&L.

Matthew has seen this pattern from both sides — as someone who sits in the financials of organizations and as a co-founder of a company built around nervous system regulation. The work is different. The root cause is often the same.

Working with Matthew means working with someone who sees the whole picture — the cash flow and the culture, the operational structure and the human beings inside it.

The pattern

Spending from fear

Organizations making financial decisions reactively — from anxiety, from scarcity, from a dysregulated relationship with their own numbers — consistently underperform those operating from clarity.

The opportunity

Clarity creates capacity

When leadership understands the financial health of the organization — really understands it, not just monitors it — decision-making improves, culture improves, and performance follows.

The result

Organizations that actually thrive

Strong cash flow, operational health, and a team that feels genuinely supported aren't separate outcomes. Matthew works on all three — because they're all the same outcome.

How Matthew Works

Two ways to work together

Matthew works with a select number of organizations at a time — in both capacities. Reach out to start a conversation about which engagement is the right fit.

Financial & Operational

Fractional CFO & COO

For organizations that need senior financial and operational leadership

Matthew serves select organizations as a Fractional CFO and COO — providing the senior financial and operational leadership of a full-time executive at a fraction of the commitment and cost. Built for growing companies that need strategic clarity, not just bookkeeping.

The work centers on what actually moves an organization forward: cash flow clarity, financial decision-making, operational systems, and building the internal infrastructure that lets your team do their best work without the founder carrying everything.

Cash flow strategy and financial health assessment
Operational systems and process improvement
Financial forecasting and scenario planning
Leadership team support and strategic advisory
Culture-conscious operational design
Ongoing fractional engagement — embedded, not transactional

Matthew's 20+ years in financial services means he speaks the language of business outcomes and ROI naturally — which means The M of G Method lands with leadership in a way that most wellbeing programming doesn't. He's been in the rooms these leaders are in. He understands what they're carrying.

Who This Is For

The leaders Matthew works best with

Matthew works with a select number of organizations at a time — in both capacities. The right fit matters more than the volume. Here's who he does his best work with.

If you're carrying the weight of both the financial health and the human health of your organization — and you're ready to work on both with the same level of intention — reach out. That's exactly the conversation Matthew is built for.

Founders and CEOs who are ready to stop carrying it all alone

You built something real. Now you need a senior partner who can sit in the numbers and the strategy with you — without losing sight of the people who make it work.

Growing organizations that have outgrown their financial infrastructure

Revenue is there. Clarity isn't. You need someone who can build the systems and the strategy that match where you're going, not just where you've been.

Leadership teams who know culture is the problem — and want to fix it for real

Not with a one-day retreat. Not with a perks program. With something that actually changes how your people feel about showing up.

Organizations that want both — and understand they're connected

The leaders who get the most from working with Matthew are the ones who already sense that the financial health and the human health of their organization are the same problem. They're right.

About Matthew

Two decades of experience. One clear direction

Matthew Missimer is the Co-Founder and CEO of The Motion of Gratitude™ — bringing over 20 years of experience in the financial industry to the work of building organizations where people and performance both thrive.

Matthew built and ran a successful financial planning firm serving more than 300 clients throughout his career. He didn't leave because it wasn't working. He left because he saw a better way — a more human way — to support individuals and organizations in their financial health. He made a conscious choice to step away from a seven-figure business because he believed the work could go deeper, and that sitting alongside people rather than simply managing their numbers was where the real impact lived.

That instinct led him to realize he and Shannon were speaking the same language through a different lens. The same patterns he saw in the financial and operational health of organizations — she was addressing in people. Co-founding The Motion of Gratitude™ was a natural next step. His financial background gives him a lens most wellbeing partners don't have — the ability to see how an organization's financial health and human health are connected, and to work on both at the same time.

In 2025, Matthew began serving select organizations as a Fractional CFO and COO — helping leadership teams strengthen cash flow, operational health, and the kind of culture where people can do their best work. Same philosophy. Applied from the inside of an organization.
