Ever had a child born in an elevator? Jeremy Greene has, and it's just one of the fascinating stories he shares on this episode of the Quarterback Dadcast. 

As a father of two young children and the co-founder of Feather, a relationship-focused productivity platform, Jeremy brings a refreshing perspective on balancing entrepreneurship with present parenting.  

Growing up in a family where his grandfather and father built a successful residential construction business, Jeremy absorbed powerful values that now shape his approach to parenting. "Family is everything at the center," he explains, describing how this foundation has only strengthened since meeting his wife Christina, whose West Indian culture similarly prioritizes family bonds.

The conversation takes a dramatic turn when Jeremy recounts his son Cameron's birth – a four-hour labor that culminated with delivery in a hospital elevator with the help of a doctor who happened to be nearby. This story of unexpected challenge mirrors Jeremy's entrepreneurial journey, which began when he recognized the need for better relationship management tools while sending Father's Day messages to fellow dads in his contact list.

What makes this episode particularly valuable is Jeremy's honesty about his parenting struggles. He openly discusses his efforts to be more present despite the demands of building a company, sharing practical wisdom like taking ten seconds before entering the home to reset his energy. His three-part advice for fellow fathers – energy management, partner alignment, and giving yourself grace – offers simple yet powerful practices for anyone navigating the complex journey of parenthood.

Whether you're an entrepreneur balancing work demands with family life or simply a father looking for inspiration, Jeremy's blend of vulnerability, practical wisdom, and unwavering commitment to family values will leave you with actionable insights for your own parenting journey. Listen now and discover how you can strengthen the quarterback position in your own family huddle.
