Show Notes
Episode 102 and I’m joined by Matthew French. Matthew is an Australian Army veteran, Infantry Paratrooper, former leader in Veteran Mentors, and now the CEO of The Youth Regiment. 
After serving his country on deployment, Matthew transitioned his passion for leadership and mentorship into the civilian space — co-founding Veteran Mentors and delivering impactful programs for young people facing real adversity across Australia.
Today, through The Youth Regiment, he’s driving an Australia-first, veteran-led movement focused on early intervention, discipline, resilience, and real-world life skills. With long-term mentorship and a strong family-first ethos at its core, the program is helping shape stronger teenagers, stronger families, and stronger communities.
This is a powerful conversation about service, purpose, and building the next generation of resilient young Australians.
