Before founding Meridian, Matt spent four years leading his own practice, The Law Office of Robert M. Meredith, where he guided clients not only in planning their estates but also in navigating the challenges of probate and trust administration. Having seen firsthand how difficult it can be for families to close estates and for trustees to carry out complex instructions, Matt designs plans with administration in mind, ensuring they work in practice, not just on paper. Earlier in his career, he held leadership roles at J.P. Morgan Securities and Capital One Investing, and today, he also manages client investments through his affiliation with LPL Financial. Through Meridian, Matt delivers a one-stop shop by bringing together legal, tax, and financial disciplines under one roof.

Kristin Knudson CMO on the Go helping founders and leaders align their true calling with strategy, marketing, and communication so they can grow with ease instead of hustle and burnout. I didn’t come into marketing and leadership from the easy road. Years ago, I was a single mom on welfare, starting over after hitting rock bottom. What turned my life around wasn’t just working harder — it was learning how to align who I was with what I wanted to create. That shift took me from selling event tickets over the phone to becoming the Chief Strategy Officer of a national movement and a sought-after Fractional CMO. Today, I’m the CMO on the Go — a growth strategist and founder of Aligned Agency. I’ve spent 15+ years guiding founders, executives, and brands across wellness, consumer goods, and digital platforms. What makes my work different is how I integrate practical tools like communication frameworks and marketing systems with deeper Universal Laws that show us how energy, presence, and alignment actually drive results. Podcast hosts trust me because I bring both the lived experience of rebuilding a life and career from the ground up, and the executive expertise of scaling businesses, leading teams, and building strategies that stick. Listeners leave my episodes with a mix of inspiration and clear, actionable tools — and the reassurance that achieving with ease isn’t just possible, it’s repeatable.
