This episode originally aired on Mathew’s radio show, the Never Give Up Show.
The popularity of social media such as Facebook, Instagram and Tik Tok is not soon going away. As one medium disappears another one takes its place. With this comes the exposure to our children and them wanting to become part of the new normal of social interaction, especially in current times. In this episode, Matthew explores the boundaries that any parent may want to put in to place in order to ensure the safety of their children as well as the appropriate use of such media.
About the Host:
Matthew Cox spent his elementary and middle school years thinking there was something wrong with his brain. For him, schoolwork was a daunting, frustrating, and often embarrassing challenge. He was the kid who never seemed to catch up with his classmates, no matter how hard he tried. “Growing up with a disability was like having an elephant in the room that nobody wants to talk about,” Matthew explained. Being diagnosed with a learning disability during high school helped he finally put a name to the problem, and to begin his journey to personal and academic success. “I’ve learned to befriend my elephant, I’ve named him George,” Matthew said. “George is not going away but I can choose how I feel about him.”
Through his own experience, Matthew knows what it means to be a teenager in trouble as well as what it takes to run a business. Matthew brings inspiration, humor, and practical strategies during his speaking engagements, inspiring change to those he works with.
Thanks to family members and caring adults in his life, Matthew was able to overcome the hardship of his disability and has dedicated his life to helping others find their purpose and help families succeed.
