Are you leading a rich life? Or are you drifting without intention, just trying to make it through the day? If you think there is more for you than what you have now, this show is for you.

This show was recorded right after The Dad Edge Live Summit and we're going to share a quick thought from the event that is so important to our kids.

After we get one more thing checked off our endless to-do list. What we don't think about is how b...

Most men are motivated by the same thing, and it's the wrong thing—fear. We run away from the life we don't want, struggling to avoid discomfort and scarcity.

We can only run so far and so fast before we become depleted and burned out.  Today I have an amazing guest who is no stranger to the spotlight. T...

Are you taking ownership of your business, relationships, health, and future? Or are you blaming things outside yourself for a stagnant life? What is preventing you from living as your best self?  It's the ego. Most of us don't want to admit we don't have it all figured out. We don't want people to see that we're vulnerable.
