“Dad jokes” and “Dad bods” – that’s mainly what you get as a search result, and it drives me crazy.
The modern dad is so much more than this. The sad reality is that it isn’t how society sees us yet, and a part of that has to do with how Dads are invited into parenthood.
That’s what my guest Ned Schaut is trying to change with his book, Rebel and Create.
He’s on a mission to change the way guys navigate becoming a dad: from the time they get the news that they have a child on the way to taking full control and responsibility of the impact they can have on their children (and the world) as fathers.
We’re also talking about a guy's role as a parent and how society naturally favors giving women much more information and attention when transitioning into parenthood.
When was the last time you saw a dude get a gift for becoming a father?
We’re talking about being vulnerable, not taking things personally when we’re struggling, and taking the time to properly introduce new dads to the adventure that is fatherhood with tools like Rebel and Create.
And the next time you meet a new dad, remind him he’s going to kick ass!

We are in the business of building better families.
While most dads would say that family matters most, the challenge is they feel guilty knowing their careers get the best of them, and their family seems to get the rest of them.
We help Dads become family men with businesses, not businessmen who have families, so they can thrive personally AND professionally.
