META PERFORMANCE SHOW

| Grammy award-winning film and television composer, Mateo Messina, shares about his path to becoming a composer, from working in e-commerce, to writing albums in the middle of the night, to becoming in-demand in Hollywood – all without anyone asking him to or giving him permission. You’ll hear about the near-death experience that rearranged his relationship with pursuing his dreams, granting himself permission to be audacious. Jason and Mateo discuss the intersection of doing what you love and helping others, his heart for volunteerism, entrepreneurship in art, and ultimately: the relentless nature of not knowing what you can’t do.
