Do you want to up your game as a father? Or just be a better human being for that matter? The Better Dad project, with its creator Larry Hagner was built for just that. 

Meet The Good Dad Project Founder, Larry Hagner:

Our children are not born with manuals and the Journey of Fatherhood doesn’t necessarily come with a “map.”  There are challenges, twists, and turns along the way.As much as we truly enjoy our children and being a father, we tend to internalize our struggles.  When we do that, we get distracted and stressed out.  As a result, we do not enjoy the Journey of being a Dad as much as we would really like to.I am not a psychologist.  I am not a counselor in family dynamics.  I don’t have any accolades behind my name.I am like you.I have an awesome wife and 4 amazing boys (Ethan-12, Mason-10, Lawson-4, and Colton-2).I am an everyday dad trying to do the best job I can. I just want to be the best version of myself so I can guide my kids to be the best version of themselves.My story and passion for being a father is a bit unique. I grew up virtually in “fatherless environment” for most of my life.  In fact, I didn’t meet my real father until I was 30 years old.  As fate would have it, our paths crossed when he walked into a coffee shop eight years ago.  I am happy to say we have a great relationship now and spend a great deal of time together.It was really through my own childhood struggles that I realized my true passion for being a dad.
