About this episode

Ned reflects on being transactional at home and the importance of being present with family.

In this Friday Craft of Fatherhood episode, Ned processes through the realization that he's been transactional at home with his family like he is at work. What does it take to be present instead? Best takeaway: Check yourself and see if you're showing up responsive to your family, rather than expecting them to just do what you say, like a boss. --------- Check Out the Program Talked About: Genesis by Rise Up Kings This episode is sponsored by Genesis - a Rite of Passage by Rise Up Kings Order The Adventure of Fatherhood children's book here Check out the TEDx ---------- Want to learn more about The Adventure of Fatherhood? www.adventureoffatherhood.com www.rebelandcreate.com Each week Ned sits down with a dad and asks him to open up his field notes and share with other men who find themselves on the Adventure of Fatherhood.
