Being a Better Dad is Sexy! (with Jeff Hittner)

About this episode

Randi Rubenstein interviews Jeff Hittner about the challenges and responsibilities of modern fatherhood.

Let’s be real. Lots of dads aren’t ready (or willing) to take on their share of responsibility in their families. And for the dads who do want to step up, where are the role models of dads doing their part and showing up as strong and loving pack leaders? Enter Jeff Hittner, leadership and fatherhood coach, and host of the Ambitious Dads podcast. Jeff spent years teaching executives how to lead and inspire teams in the workplace. But when it came to his lifelong dream of fatherhood, he was shocked to realize how hard it was to not repeat unhelpful patterns of the past. Now, Jeff is using his skills as a coach to help educate dads who want to lead in their families, and pass on a new definition of fatherhood to their kids. Something clicked while listening? We’d love to talk with you if you want to dig deeper into your family’s specific situation. If you’re ready to stop guessing and start knowing what works, it might be worth a conversation. https://mastermindparenting.com/live-assessment/   Get all the links, resources, and transcripts here: https://mastermindparenting.com/podcast-332 About Randi Rubenstein Randi Rubenstein coaches parents raising strong-willed kids.
