My Story

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Matt Beauchamp – a stay-at-home dad who is working to master the art of parenting with my two awesome kids. Despite wrestling with ADHD, depression, and diabetes, I strive to be the epitome of authenticity. Armed with a journalism diploma, I'm not just a wordsmith – I'm the ghostwriter behind many articles you’ve probably read and speeches you’ve probably heard. When I’m not writing, you'll find me jamming on my guitar and drums or engaged in my community where I work supporting individuals, helping promote small businesses, and fostering connections wherever I am.

It’s been said before, but for the people in the back, Dads don’t babysit their kids, they parent!

#AD Sharing toys that were my childhood favourite like @HotWheelsofficial has made us the most popular house on the block with the neighbourhood kids!

The Hot Wheels Ultimate Garage has been a ton of fun since we got it and there’s still time to grab one for the holidays with the link in my bio!

Calgary has a new semi-private Nordic spa @clearnordicspa and I got to check it out. Uniquely it is a silent spa, with a separate social space and zen room for conversation. There’s three different types of sauna’s, a hot tub, a cold plunge pool, showers and meditation spaces. You can even send yourself a postcard!

This would make a great gift for the holidays!

I can’t afford for a cold to derail me which is why I head to @shoppersdrugmart at the first sign of a cold coming on. They are my convenient, one-stop shop for everything I need for cough and cold season and added bonus - I can get Optimum points on every purchase.

With multiple locations across Canada with extended hours, it’s easy for me to head there whenever I need to! Visit your local Shoppers Drug Mart for your cough and cold needs.

November was a good month. We’re all ready for some holiday magic this December.

In loving memory of all the moustaches that have been shaved off the last couple days. You will be missed dear friends.

Thank you to everyone that helped me raise funds for all the dads, brothers, sons and men out there!

There’s lots of things going on in December for families in Calgary! Check out my blog (link in bio) for more!

My latest hyperfocus is shoes. Did I do it? Am I fashion? Big shoutout to @commonace founder and general badass @beachykj for the recommendations.

It really be like that some days.

As a stay-at-home dad, I’ve seen firsthand how masculinity isn’t about fitting into a narrative or meeting outdated expectations. It’s about showing up—for our kids, our partners, and ourselves.

Let’s redefine the narrative:
✅ Masculinity isn’t about hiding emotions; it’s about embracing emotional intelligence
✅ Strength isn’t measured by silence; it’s measured by having the courage to ask for help when we need it
✅ Being a man doesn’t mean “toughening up,” it means being a safe place for people we love

To all the men who are changing diapers, tackling bedtime routines, working on their mental health, and redefining what it means to be a man: you’re doing incredible work.

This #InternationalMensDay, let’s celebrate a version of masculinity that’s inclusive, kind, and real.

Tag the men who inspire you and remind them they’re making a difference every single day.

And these are the guys winning the popular vote now 🙄

But, frankly, if we’re talking beige flags this is really just the tip of the iceberg 😂

Just some random dms I’ve received with zero context. Don’t worry some of these didn’t make sense to me either 😂
