Are you building a life that actually supports the family you want?
I was in a conversation last night that hit me hard. We were talking about real freedom in a family.
And I said something I’ve been feeling for a long time:
Sending your partner to a 9 to 5 while strangers raise your kids isn’t liberation. It’s outsourcing one of the most sacred roles on earth.
I know this might stir something. Especially in a world where daycare and school are the default. But I want to challenge that.
Because when we hand our kids off for 8 to 10 hours a day to people who don’t know them, don’t hold our values, and aren’t emotionally bonded to them, that shapes them. And not always in the way we want.
This isn’t about guilt or judgement. It’s about becoming conscious.
I don’t have children yet, but when I do, they’ll be raised at home. Homeschooled. Loved into life with presence, rhythm, nature, and real masculine leadership in their corner.
And that doesn’t just mean their mother shows up.
It means I show up.
That’s why building a business I own, working from home, and designing a life of sovereignty matters to me.
Because I want to be there. I want to lead my family, not just fund it. I want to be a man my kids know, feel, and trust every day.
I’ll say it again, this isn’t about shaming anyone doing what they have to do.
It’s about asking the deeper question:
Is the life you’re building designed to raise the kind of children you want to raise?
Curious to hear your thoughts.
Is this something you’ve thought about?
What kind of father or leader do you want to be when it’s your turn?
