DeQwan Young: 100M Views, The Beast Documentary, and the Mindset of Never Giving Up | Front Porch Chronicles

In this episode of Front Porch Chronicles, Clinton Foshee sits down with filmmaker, creator, and entrepreneur DeQwan Young for a real conversation about perseverance, storytelling, and chasing a dream bigger than fear. DeQwan is the founder of Q3 Media, a filmmaker whose work has generated over 100 million views online, and the creator behind the documentary The Beast: The Final Fight, telling the powerful story of boxer Brian Minto. But this conversation goes deeper than accomplishments. DeQwan shares what it was like growing up in Pontiac, Michigan, playing football for nearly 20 years, and how the lessons of accountability, adversity, and discipline shaped the way he approaches filmmaking and life. He talks about building a production company from scratch, navigating the ups and downs of being a creator, working with major brands and athletes, and why learning to let go of expectations changed his perspective on success. This episode is about resilience, purpose, creativity, and the courage it takes to keep showing up when things get hard. If you’re chasing a dream, building something from nothing, or trying to stay motivated through difficult seasons, this conversation will resonate.
