Val Matvei is a 20-year-old entrepreneur who runs the leading appointment setting coaching company in his space, helping people land their first role, start making money online, and transition into bigger opportunities from there. By 19, he had made $92,000 in a single month, but the journey to get there was years in the making. In this episode, Val takes us through his story from his early teens in Ireland, where he first got into theme pages and crypto, through the chaos of losing money, working funfair jobs, and eventually finding his footing in appointment setting. We dig into how he scaled quickly by treating it like a game rather than a grind, and the hard lessons that came with running two businesses at once before he was 20.We also cover the mindset and worldview he’s developed, how tying your self-worth to revenue can quietly hold you back, why environment matters more than most people admit, and what it means to genuinely believe you deserve more before the results are there to prove it.Subscribe To Antonio’s Newsletter:https://antonio-amaral.kit.com/0c6226e34eConnect with Antonio:IG: https://www.instagram.com/antoniolfamaral/ Timestamps: 00:00 – Trailer01:06 – Intro & What Val does03:09 – Val’s biggest win so far05:18 – Why someone should start with appointment setting06:52 – The difference between periods Val enjoyed and when he struggled14:50 – Val’s story up to this point24:52 – How Val developed his belief system of possibilities 27:04 – How Val realised he was different28:50 – What happens to you when you make $10k/m at 1530:10 – What “giving up” for a period did to Val32:55 – The moments that made Val shift his identity35:02 – Transitioning from appointment setter to business owner36:50 – How Val went from $10k/m to $92k/m in less than a year41:35 – Val’s most challenging chapter46:18 – How Val’s self worth changed as his business developed52:37 – The identity gap vs the skill gap54:39 – How moving out of his hometown changed his life58:32 – The places around the world Val resonated with the most1:02:03 – How pain and sacrifice led to Val changing his life1:06:30 – What Delusion means to Val1:10:10 – Good work vs Amazing work1:12:00 – How to identify the right vehicle for you1:15:38 – When does it make sense to pivot and do things differently1:17:30 – Val’s approach to life maxxing1:20:15 – What Val values today that he didn’t value before1:23:05 – Finishing thoughts
