Are we doing justice by our sons when it comes to imbibing positive masculinity and navigating the confusing world of rites of passage? Can we, as parents, educators, and role models, do more in creating a counter-cultural narrative for our boys? These are the soul-stirring questions we ponder as we engage in an enlightening conversation with Matt Beaudreau, founder of Acton Academy Placer and Acton Academy Sacramento and co-founder of Apogee Strong.  Matt takes us on a journey, sharing the inception story of Apogee Strong, a platform that seeks to reintroduce rites of passage and positive masculinity in the lives of young men.
