In this episode Ryan Sullivan and I nerd out about creating and building community that empowers each of us to explore and to be our whole, authentic selves. Especially as parents.
Ryan shares his passion about being a father (loving his wife and daughter and soon to arrive newborn with a whole heart), growing his Christian faith, creating a fulfilling career, and staying athletically competitive.
Ryan is the founder of Fatherhood On Fire, an organization that Celebrates, Elevates, and Encourages men embracing their role as fathers.
Ryan studied Social Studies Education at Indiana State University (Go Trees!!!) which led him to work at The Painted Turtle Camp in Southern California in the summers of 2009 and 2010. After graduating from ISU in 2011 Ryan worked at the sister camp in Ireland, Barretstown. And then went on to Camp Boggy Creek in Central Florida.
During his time at camp Ryan met some of the most amazing parents leading their families through life's biggest challenge. According to Ryan, "These were the parents I wanted to be like. I wanted to lead my family with courage, grace, and humility."
Ryan fell in love with the challenge and diversity of triathlon. He has completed over 50 triathlons since 2008 culminating with a brutal performance at Ironman Louisville in 2018, a race that had a combined 30% DNS and DNF.
Ryan currently serves as a Business Development Specialist for C2IT Consulting helping clients leverage technology to achieve more than they ever thought possible.
