What do you do when your son checks you? Do you get upset and bring down the "I'm the dad" hammer or do you self-check and recognize you are not living up to what you've taught him?  Getting called on your own stuff, yeah that can be rough. But are you humble enough to take it? Are you humble enough to change?

Death is such a heavy and challenging topic. How do you have a discussion with your children about pets or loved ones passing away? This week I and Jeremy Loque sit down to discuss how he has talked to his daughter about death. We explore being vulnerable with our own feelings as well as the importance of allowing time to grieve.

We've all experienced betrayal, loss, and hurt. How do you move past the disappointment, anger, and dark feeling and thoughts that can simmer in your heart and mind? How do you let it go? How do you move into a good place? 

This can be a significant challenge. I thought I'd share an experience, that if I'm honest with myself I'm still working through. I have discovered some actions that you can take that I think will be helpful for you.

Men, have you ever gone out to your car only to find it completely empty. No Gas! Literally riding on fumes to the gas station.  What is your go to response? Do you bring down the hammer? Or do you just accept it and move on instead of making it a big deal?

This week I thought I'd explore how we respond when our expectations are not met. Do we build up or does our demeanor and voice cut to the core?

I'd love to hear how you respond.

Hosts:

We are taught as men to “man up”, “push it aside”, “be a man” and so many other phrases that have taught us to push our feelings aside, to bury them deep. Unfortunately that burying of emotion has cause men to retreat, lash out, become abusive and are the largest percentage of individuals to commit suicide. We have to do better about teaching our boys and men to acknowledge their feelings, give them a space to express what is on their heart, and teach them how to productively deal with those emotions. This week I want to dig in to some of my thoughts and experiences with men, my family, and mental health.

Some of you have awakened to the seriousness of your situation and are wondering how you will ever rebuild what is on the edge of being lost.   Embrace the process of fixing as well as the process of healing.

This week I explore three experiences that I had this week that I re-emphasized to be the power of being present as a father. Being engaged at every age of your child creates a foundation of success for them. It builds independence, confidence and a willingness to go after their dream.  Let's see if these three experiences have relevance to you.
