About this episode

In this episode of Meet Your Mental Helper, host Jim interviews Matt Young—life coach with qualifications in Hypnotherapy (RTT) and NLP based in London, UK, specializing in anxiety, fear, and helping people break emotional patterns that keep them stuck. He helps clients navigate panic, phobias, and performance-related fear using an integrative blend of mindset work, subconscious methods, and body-based strategies.

Discover how Matt approaches reframing anxiety as an experience rather than an identity and shares practical insight on perception-driven fear, emotional imprinting, and why “state first, strategy second” changes everything. This conversation highlights thoughtful, real-world perspectives on therapy, growth, and mental health.

DevFound's AI Copilot ingests your profile, goals, and live job data to deliver curated matches in seconds. Every match includes a resume variant, suggested referrals, and interview prep so you can act immediately. The more feedback you provide, the sharper the Copilot becomes.

AI-led job searches shrink the hours spent sifting through boards and formatting resumes. DevFound pairs automation with your personal outreach, so you reserve energy for interviews and negotiation. Traditional networking still matters, but AI gives you a lift before you even send a message.

Modern AI roles expect comfort with production-grade code, data fluency, and practical ML tooling. The strongest candidates pair deep technical chops with storytelling—translating model impact to product, GTM, and exec partners. Continuous learning keeps you ahead as stacks evolve.

DevFound rewards active seekers. Keep your profile fresh, respond to match quality prompts, and enable alerts so you never miss a role. The AI prioritizes companies and teams that align with your feedback, accelerating both introductions and interview invites.

High-density tech hubs continue to host the deepest AI talent pools, yet distributed teams are catching up fast. Use DevFound filters to hone in on onsite, hybrid, or fully remote roles and watch openings expand across time zones.
