Being a father is hard work but it’s also one of the most rewarding journeys a man can take in his life. With all the demands of life, it can feel like we, as fathers, as simply flailing around trying to figure out the best way to raise our children. With 4 of my own, just when I think I have it figured out, I’m thrown another curveball.
My guest today, Larry Hagner, has spent the last 10 years coaching men who want to become the best fathers they can and, possibly, the fathers they never had themselves. Today, we talk about the spirit of fatherhood, what to plan for before your first child, a powerful tool Larry has built called the “Family Score,” to assess your performance as a father, building unbreakable bonds with your kids, how best to have tough conversations.
