In this episode of Ask Me Anything, Kipp and Shawn tackle four questions about the challenges men face in leadership, relationships, personal growth, and fatherhood. They discuss how to earn respect as a newly promoted supervisor without becoming an authoritarian boss, how to bring excitement and connection back into a long-term marriage, and how to stop letting past mistakes define your future.
They also explore the challenges of parenting teenagers and rebuilding a relationship with a son who is becoming increasingly distant. Along the way, they share personal experiences and practical advice about influence, intentional relationships, and becoming a better father.
