This week Matt is in the hot seat.
Repurposed from Dan Banks Nachmias' podcast Parenting Without the Manual, this one goes deeper than business. It's about where hunger comes from, what money actually does to kids, and how to raise children who can stand on their own two feet, without quietly doing it for them.
Matt gets into growing up with money without growing up entitled, the invisible safety net he didn't know he had until it was gone, and why bankruptcy doesn't break you. Staying down does.
Plus the one piece of advice he'd give every new parent. You'll have to listen for that one.
