Matthew AI argues that high-value women are powerful agents of influence who shape the world through the people they raise, whether biological children or not. He shares how his mother's kindness and empathy after his brothers left home profoundly shaped his character and career, and calls on men to publicly honor the women who have gifted them lasting influence.
We often define a mum as being somebody who has given birth to a child. If you just consider that alone. By the way, the fact that every single one of us on this planet has come from a woman, that on its own is incredible. But to me, there's something far more special to women than simply the biological ability to give birth. Moms are people who change the world. They pass on wisdom, they pass on their best traits to the people they raise. They change the world through the people they influence. That's what the most powerful mums are. They are influencers. And what's interesting about that is it made me realize that no woman has to be a biological mother to have the best qualities of a mum. Because what moms really are is agents of influence, agents of change. And any woman can be that. That's what makes women powerful. That's what makes women special. My mum is special for so many more reasons than being a mum. I remember when me and my brothers, I have two younger brothers, and when we all went to university, my mum was left on her own in the house and was looking for an identity again. Because it wasn't just being a mother. It was this powerful woman. And you know, you know, there were parts of herself that she had forgotten along the way in being a mum. But the truth is, being a mum isn't what made her special. Being a powerful woman is what made her special. She taught me a sense of kindness and empathy that was unique to her and allows me to do what I do today. I wouldn't be here today with this message if it wasn't for my mum. I wouldn't be doing my career now if it wasn't for my mum. I certainly wouldn't be good at my career now if it wasn't for my mum. That is someone who has changed my life. So here's my question to you. Firstly, who in your life, whether it was your actual mum or a mother figure, taught you something? And what was that thing? And what would you like to pass on as a powerful woman to somebody else that could change their life? Thank you all for watching. I love you all. And this is a special message to the women out there. I love you all. You're incredible. You do incredible things on this earth every single day and you change the world. And for any man watching this, use this comment section right now to pay respect to a woman in your life who has given you a gift that you treasure today. I'll see you soon, guys. Love you all. See you next week.
