In this episode of Dads Against the Narrative, hosts Nate Feathers and Jack delve deep with special guest Matt Beaudreau. Matt is an educator, keynote speaker, and the co-founder of Apogee Strong, a mentorship program designed to help young men and fathers become leaders.

The conversation kicks off with Matt’s personal "red pill" moments—from a realization during the movie Braveheart at age 15 to questioning the official narrative of 9/11 while preparing for the Secret Service. The trio explores the power of identity over discipline, why Matt’s children have never eaten McDonald's, and the critical importance of being the "inner voice" for your children. They also discuss the freedom of living outside the US, the concept of "known slavery vs. unknown freedom," and how to design a life you don't need a vacation from.

In This Episode You Will Learn:
• [00:42] Matt’s Red Pill Moments: How watching Braveheart as a teenager and questioning the events of 9/11 shifted Matt's trajectory from the Secret Service to independent thinking.
• [04:00] The Soundtrack of Focus: Why Matt plays the Braveheart soundtrack on repeat to get into "deep work" mode.
• [10:14] Identity vs. Discipline: Matt explains why he doesn’t need discipline to stay sober or healthy—it’s simply his identity. "I don't have to discipline my kids; I've shown them how to be disciplined humans."
• [15:01] Normalizing Excellence: Why fast food isn’t a "treat" in the Beaudreau household and how parents get to set what is "normal" for their children.
• [20:01] Building a Foundation: The analogy of building a 10-story vs. a 100-story building and how early intentionality with kids pays off in their teenage years.
• [25:50] Designing Your Life: The importance of designing a life you don't need to escape from and the intentionality behind family meals.
• [35:04] Known Slavery vs. Unknown Freedom: A powerful discussion on why people choose comfortable unhappiness over the uncertainty of freedom.
• [46:44] Life in Mexico: Jack and Matt discuss the reality of living in Mexico, safety, and the benefits of raising children in a family-centric culture.

Memorable Quotes:
• "Your kids will do what you do before they do what you say."
• "I don't have to discipline my kids; I've just shown them how to be disciplined humans."
• "Birds born in a cage think flying is an illness."
• "Known slavery is better than unknown freedom... we want the known slavery because it's familiar."
