In this episode of Bad Day Excellence, I sit down with Jon Hord, founder of The Engaged Father Project, to talk about something a lot of dads quietly wrestle with:

You are crushing it at work, but feel like you are losing at home.

Jon shares the story of waking up in a hotel after an amazing family day at an amusement park, with his son tucked in beside him, and realizing that his brain sprinted straight to a software upgrade at work instead of staying in that moment.

That was his red flag. His “your priorities need to be re-evaluated” moment.

We dig into:

• How “provider first” programming pulls dads away from what actually matters

• Why your kids need a calm dad more than a perfect one

• How to run a “post mortem” on hard moments at home using Jon’s “Don’t Waste The Moment” tool

• Why a simple fatherhood mission statement can completely change how you show up

• The painful phrase Jon regrets saying to his son, and how he repaired it through vulnerability

Jon also shares details on The Engaged Father Project, his 8 week program, and his free 5 call Engaged Father Jumpstart for dads who feel stuck or ashamed but ready to change.
