In XYBM 132, I sit down with JR Rivera, a dynamic leader, author, educator, and former professional athlete, to discuss navigating fatherhood, faith, and purpose. We explore his transition from teaching to becoming a full-time content creator, his strategies for intentional parenting, and the profound impact of faith and resilience in his journey. 

JR also shares valuable insights on the importance of being present for your children and how to instill delayed gratification to help them become strong, successful people. 
      
This episode is a parenting masterclass, offering practical wisdom for anyone considering having children or raising kids of their own. Tune in on all podcast streaming platforms, including YouTube.
