March 22, 2024 018: Crafting Your Dad Vision: The Power of Envisioning Your Future
Will I ever achieve the things that I want to achieve?
That question has been hanging over my head this week. It was asked by my old drama teacher. But he didn’t voice it. His newly-widowed wife of 56 years asked that question. And that’s the question I want to explore with you today. And if you don’t know what you want to achieve, then I have two techniques to share with you that will help vision caste for your life.

March 15, 2024 017: Reverse-Engineer Life Skills | Special Guest Kyle Jacobsen
What skills do my kids need so that they can live fulfilling adult lives?
My guest today took that question seriously. He created a list of skills he wants to make sure his kids master before they moved out.
Kyle is a dad of four, from preschool age to high schoolers. I’ve known Kyle for years in a professional setting. I’ve seen his strategy of reverse engineering a goal, breaking it down into smaller steps, and then making a deliberate plan to achieve it. So I wasn’t surprised when he casually mentioned that he had done the same for what he wanted his kids to know before they moved out. We’ll dive in to that, and stick around to the end, because Kyle describes a common problem that nearly every parent of a high schooler experiences, and he shares his unique solution that you can try today!

March 08, 2024 016: How to Run a Weekly Family Retro
Today I want to introduce you to a simple, yet remarkably powerful conversation you can have with your family. It’s a meeting that has been adapted from the world of software development and agile practices. Hundreds of thousands of people are doing this meeting every week, all around the world. Yet, they are nearly exclusively conducting this meeting in their workplaces, with their coworkers. Very few are doing this with their families.
You can be one of the few. Today, I will share with you how to run a weekly family retro meeting. You and I will explore the benefits of this simple practice, and I have plenty of stories to share with you on how to do it right, and how to do it wrong. And if you stick around the end, I’ll share with you a free resource I’ve created that you can download to help you get your family retros up and running.

March 01, 2024 015: Dare to be a Dad | Special Guest Jesse Jarvis
Our guest today is Jesse Jarvis, a dad of three and the creative force behind the Dare to Dad Instagram account. With twenty years of experience leading and coaching young adults, Jesse brings a wealth of wisdom to the table when it comes to navigating the wild ride of parenting.
In our conversation we explore the power of responsive parenting, how to encourage responsibility in your kids, and why communication is key in building strong family bonds. Plus, Jesse shares his insights on tackling tough conversations, connecting with sons, and why dads play such a crucial role in their children's lives.
Going into this conversation I didn’t plan to get as personal and vulnerable as I did, but I think that really speaks to the collaborative spirit that Jesse brings, as well as the power of dads coming together to lift each other and encourage each other on the adventure of fatherhood.
