Episode #985
What does it really mean to be present for your kids—not just physically, but emotionally and mentally?
And how do you balance that presence with the pressure you put on yourself to be a better man, husband, and leader?
In this episode, one father opens up about the raw and honest journey of leveling up—not just as a dad, but as a man.
You’ll hear how stepping into deeper accountability led to a powerful realization: the standards we hold ourselves to can also become silent contracts that impact our relationships.
We dive into what happens when you stop trying to fix others and start leading with understanding.
The conversation explores how to break patterns of judgment, how to truly connect with your children (especially daughters), and why being the “lighthouse” for your family sometimes means taking time to recharge your own bulb.
You’ll also hear about the surprising shifts that come from doing men’s work—not just once, but consistently—and how doing this work together brings clarity, confidence, and a deeper connection to purpose.
No fluff. Just real stories from real men doing the work—together.
Feel like you’re doing everything right but still drifting from your wife?
This free book will show you how to reconnect—without long talks or therapy.
