Half of my childhood was without a father figure in my life and the other half was with toxic father figures that came and went. I made one decision as a young boy, and it was that my kids would know who their father was. I knew firsthand, the devastating effects of growing up without a positive father figure in my life

When I became a father for the first time in 2006, it became clear that I didn’t have the skills to be the best for my sons. I was short on patience. I was quick to anger. My marriage was mediocre at best. 

I learned quickly that the desire to be a legendary father, man, and husband wasn’t enough. I had to learn the skills to actually do it. 

Our children are not born with manuals and the Journey of Fatherhood doesn’t necessarily come with a “map.”  

There are challenges, twists, and turns along the way.

As much as we truly enjoy our children and being a father, we tend to internalize our struggles. When we do that, we get distracted and stressed out. As a result, we do not enjoy the journey of being a dad and husband as much as we would really like to.

I finally decided in 2015 to start The Dad Edge Podcast and learn the skills from experts to live a legendary life as a husband, father, and man. 

Over the past 6 years, I have interviewed over 700 experts on parenting, mindset, patience, communication, intimacy, optimizing health, and the power of community.

I am the proud father of 4 energetic boys, and the husband of my soul mate, Jessica for the past 18 years. Life isn’t all sunshine and rainbows every day. However, I’ve learned skills to optimize my life as a man, husband, and father.

If you are a lifelong learner and you don’t have this thing figured out… join me and let’s continue to learn together!

Live Legendary!
