Ever wished for a magic formula for striking the perfect balance between family and work life? As parents, we all want to ensure we're fully present for the critical moments, but how do we navigate this while also focusing on our careers?

Our guest today, Bryan Elsesser, CEO of Elsesser Ventures, shares his incredible journey of achieving this balance. Brian candidly reveals how he prioritized family dinners and made specific changes to his work life to be there for these special moments.  

From a small apartment to a beautiful home on Long Island's North Shore, Bryan's parenting journey is inspiring and filled with valuable lessons.   As a former professional opera singer, Bryan faced the challenge of what he wanted his life to look like.  Did he want to travel and miss so much?  Not only does Bryan share heartwarming stories about his four children, but he also talks about the role of nature in their lives, the lessons they learned from family vacations, and how a mountain hike became a memorable moment for his family. The gravity of the conversation escalates as Bryan recalls his early entrepreneurial days and how 9/11 changed his perspective on work, life, and the importance of resilience.  You will hear how Bryan is now a volunteer Firefighter/EMT for the Setauket Fire Department.

As we wrap up this episode, we delve deeper into how Bryan’s family aspirations led him to step away from a thriving career, highlighting the importance of loyalty, freedom, and autonomy. We discuss the enormous significance of practice in both business and parenting.  

Lastly, we touch upon Bryan's upcoming tech-enabled platform, emphasizing the crucial balance between work and family. Remember, the journey of fatherhood is about constant learning and growth. And as Bryan's story shows, it's never too late to pursue a life of balance and fulfillment.
