Matt Thieleman

Get to know Matt.

Matt Thieleman is a transformational coach for world-changing visionaries. He joined Pilea as a coach in 2019 to collaborate in his mission to bring a coach to every founder in the world. He served as Pilea's CEO in 2021 to support the vision and growth of the organization.

Matt is an uncompromising and unflinching champion for his clients' power, wisdom, and light. His clients go deep into who they naturally are as leaders, as the navigation system for how they want to show up in the world and the decisions they want to make. The coaching space he creates is safe and loving while challenging his clients to show up.

Before coaching, Matt was in the marketing world where he worked with clients in nearly every sector imaginable. He is a TEDx speaker, co-leader of the Samurai Coaching Dojo, and author of the forthcoming book "This is Coaching." He was born in Detroit and now lives in Colorado with his partner, Kristen, where they enjoy everything the sunshine and mountains have to offer.

  • "Working with Matt was a life changing experience. I grew both personally and professionally more than ever before. I am now more confident and mindful. Working with him gave me the confidence to start my own business. Matt has a gift for helping people listen to their inner voice."

    Kristen M.

  • "The greatest gift of our coaching time was realizing, when I had walked away from so much, Matt helped me look towards what I was walking into instead. Within just a couple of months of starting our sessions, I was on an entirely new work path, growing friendships, and learning plenty of new things."

    Rebecca W.

  • "Working with Matt was a profoundly important experience. My life, my work, and my relationships are improved. These improvements have been realized because of an improved ability to choose in the face of challenges, in the form of both external circumstances as well as well-worn inner patterns of seeing, experiencing, and relating to life. And these improvements I attribute to my work with Matt."
