Most high-performing men lead their business like a king but feel lost at home.
In this episode, Jon Vroman (Front Row Dads) and I unpack the silent cost of masculine burnout and what it really takes to lead your family with presence, clarity, and calm.

We dive into:
 • Nervous system regulation for fatherhood
 • Why kids don’t need a “perfect” dad—just a present one
 • How men unknowingly sabotage intimacy by overworking
 • Real masculine leadership (without burnout)

Whether you’re a dad, husband, or future father figure, this convo will flip your lens on what power looks like in a family.
