[iframe style=”border:none” src=”//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/13854821/height/100/width//thumbnail/no/render-playlist/no/theme/custom/tdest_id/1004267/custom-color/193300″ height=”100″ width=”100%” scrolling=”no” allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen]

Today’s guest is all about resilience and living the life we desire.  But as we dive deep into this episode if you are not acknowledging something in your life you can’t move past it. 

Emotions are the center of this episode and if you are feeling a feeling that you don’t understand or maybe you are holding back a feeling from coming to the surface, this episode is for you.

I loved the depth that Anthony brought to this episode and you get to hear what life as a dad and podcaster sounds like in the background a few times. 

Topics Covered:

  • It’s not what you give someone it’s what you deposit with them
  • Why Veterans love having a mission
  • We have an application problem
  • You can’t google who you need to know
  • How you handle the pop quizzes in life
  • Time is a lot like a credit card
  • How we process our feelings
  • Self-care is wisdom on display

FATHERHOOD FRIDAY | Kids Spell LOVE … TIME

[iframe style=”border:none” src=”//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/13828379/height/100/width//thumbnail/no/render-playlist/no/theme/custom/tdest_id/1004267/custom-color/193300″ height=”100″ width=”100%” scrolling=”no” allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen]

Today I talked about the core idea of this podcast, its mentioned in almost every interview because it’s that important.  

As we work to make our life a dad integrated life, remember that your kids don’t understand why dad has to work.  

When you think about how you can show up for your kids with a gift of TIME each day, you can anchor yourself in a positive way as the day gets going and hopefully, you can end feeling like you had a good day, even if normal has been canceled.

67 – Alcohol and Drug Addiction with Dr. Ben Nordstrom

[iframe style=”border:none” src=”//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/13751471/height/100/width//thumbnail/no/render-playlist/no/theme/custom/tdest_id/1004267/custom-color/193300″ height=”100″ width=”100%” scrolling=”no” allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen]

April is National Alcohol Responsibility Month in the United States and today we get to talk to the Executive Director of Responsibility.org.  Responsible drinking is something that is a dark area of American culture and a lot of it not talked about in the world of parenting or being an adult. 

We touch on a big idea here in this episode about being responsible for your own life and the choices you make and don’t make have a direct correlation to the success you experience in life. 

As parents, we need to understand that the only wrong thing to do when it comes to having this talk with our kids is NOT HAVING IT.

The #1 influence on a kid’s choice to drink responsibly is their parents, and if we don’t talk about it they will watch our actions or someones elses. 

Topics Covered:

  • Planting the seeds of responsibility when they are young that carry over into being an adult.
  • Kids have a curiosity to learn and understand the world around them.
  • The emotional connection to alcohol and drug use
  • The patterns of your behavior will repeat with your kids
  • Drinking is not a coping mechanism
  • Tools for veterans facing alcohol and drug issues
  • Difference between Mental Health and Mental Wellness
  • Breaking the behavior groove of your habits to change the direction we are headed
  • Is letting your kids drink in your presence good or bad?
  • Having the talk with your kids > https://bit.ly/2WTfyLe
  • The many things that come from dad and we need to be active in their life
