You want to know why we are building these programs?
It wasn’t for the top 10% who were already winning.
It wasn’t for the loudest voices or the smoothest talkers.
I built them for the youth of this generation..
The overlooked. The restless. The rough ones who didn’t fit in a classroom.
I built them for the younger me—the kid who needed a challenge, not a lecture.
A mission, not a worksheet.
The War Against Boyhood
Our education system, for all its good intentions, has quietly declared war on the nature of boys.
- It demands compliance over courage.
- It rewards stillness over strength.
- It punishes risk and boldness while glorifying politeness and passivity.
Boys are told to sit still, be quiet, raise their hand, and fall in line—while their God-given instincts to move, lead, protect, and build are seen as problems to medicate or manage.
And when they don’t conform?
They’re labeled “troublemakers.”
Put on pills. Sent to detention. Told they’re broken.
But Boys Aren’t Broken—The System Is
What we call “misbehavior” is often just misplaced energy.
That same boy who’s disruptive in math class might be a natural leader under pressure.
That teen who can’t focus on a textbook could be laser-focused in a survival scenario or a hands-on mission.
I saw it over and over again.
And I finally said: Enough.
The Birth of the Programs
That’s why we built the Junior Warrior Training and The Spartan Challenge.
I wasn’t trying to fix boys—I was trying to free them.
To give them:
- A place to fail safely and grow stronger.
- A challenge worth rising for.
- A mission to fight for that demands heart, focus, and grit.
- A brotherhood that trains resilience, humility, and direction.
I created these programs because the world doesn’t need more polite, neutered boys—it needs capable, ethical, battle-tested men.
Leadership Begins with Identity
These boys don’t just need structure.
They need to know who they are.
They need to feel purpose surging through their veins.
In the Spartan Challenge, we give them:
- Tactical training in leadership, teamwork, first aid, and more.
- Real-world skills and crisis simulations.
- Discipline that builds their spine, and mentorship that builds their heart.
Every challenge is designed to show them:
“You are more than your GPA. You were born to lead.”
Call to Action: Let’s Raise Leaders, Not Drones
If you’re a parent, stop letting the school system define your son. Enroll him in something that awakens his fire.
If you’re a mentor, speak truth into the boy who doesn’t know he’s a warrior yet.
If you’re a leader, fund or partner with programs that restore strength, skill, and direction to young men.
If you’re a struggling young man, hear me:
You are not broken. You are untapped potential. Come find out what you’re made of.
This Isn’t Just About Boys. It’s About the Future.
We don’t fix culture by yelling at it.
We fix it by raising men who can stand in the gap.
That’s what these programs do.
We’re not just training youth.
We’re building foundations for families, pillars for communities, and defenders of truth.
Let’s stop taming our boys—and start training them.
