  • “Get To” vs “Have To”: The Mindset Shift That Changes Everything

     “I get to.” Three small words. One giant shift.

    In this episode, Dr. Matthew Arau shows how this mindset flips leadership from pressure to presence. It’s not about sugarcoating struggle, it’s about showing up with purpose. From the classroom to the boardroom, this reframe hits different.

    If your day’s been feeling like a to-do list with legs, this one’s for you. Tune in. Feel lighter. Lead better.

  • What Happens When Fathers Aren’t Heard (Or Allowed to Speak)

    We were just sitting in the car, me and my daughter, talking about music.
    Then she played a song that quietly broke my heart.

    It told a story I never want to be part of.
    About a dad turned into a villain, not by truth but by pain and half truths. 

    That moment made me realize how easy it is to get erased.

    How fast someone’s story becomes your legacy, even if it’s not real.

    This one’s about breaking that cycle no matter how hard it is.
    For me. For my daughters. Maybe for you too.

  • How I Taught My Daughters to Celebrate Our Family Name & Legacy

    What if your kids actually loved their last name? Pretty wild idea, right?

    I didn't like my family name when I was young, and neither did my friends. So when I became a dad, I decided to change that game completely!

    When my daughter Anastacia came home for spring break, I thought, "Perfect timing!" and got her to spill all our family secrets. Trust me, they're pretty funny ones!

    Want to hear about us yelling our name at random buildings? Or our super silly bedtime traditions that somehow worked?

    Here's the cool part: once we built that Family Pride, everything else fell into place—from good behavior to strong values, it all came from knowing they were part of something special.

    Come hang out with us for some laughs, fun stories, and maybe steal some ideas for your own family. Warning: may cause excessive family pride and random outbursts of happiness!

  • Does Jealousy Add Value to Love?

    While getting my haircut the other day, my stylist asked me, "Are you the jealous type?" 

    It got me thinking about how jealousy often stems from insecurity in relationships. 

    Honestly, if you trust your partner, there's no need for jealousy—it just wastes time and energy.

    Building a solid connection requires complete trust. If it’s missing, it might be time to reassess things.

  • The Role of Fatherhood in My Personal Transformation

    Leading up to the birth of my first daughter, I felt the weight of responsibility and the pressure to grow up.

    I was just a clueless, lost kid and now I had a kid. Somehow, I had to figure it out.

    Here we are, 22 years later. But how?

    I took fatherhood seriously. Dead serious.

    I even served as PTA president for a year. Yeah, that’s pretty serious.

    In my latest video, I share the journey of becoming the man and father my daughters would admire and look up to.
