Summary

Choose a metric regarding the health, wealth, and fulfillment of men and it’s easy to see that men are either falling drastically behind our female counterparts or, at a minimum, on a downward spiral. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think it’s a contest between the sexes (That would suggest that it’s a zero-sum game. It’s not). But it’s a glimpse into modern man’s gradual decline in his ability to protect, provide, and preside in his life and the lives of those he cares about.

Matt Beaudreau joins me on the podcast today to talk about why this is the case and how our steady decline starts at a young age and inside the halls of academia. We talk about Trump’s desire to shut down the Department of Education, how government and academia have distracted us from true learning, why you’ll never find your purpose – you must forge it, living a life by design – not default, and the importance of the “Hero’s Journey.”
