It's inevitable that each and every day we go out and do some kind of "work."

What's not inevitable is framing that work in the context that inspires our kids to learn how we go out to impact our world.

I share briefly my own experience with us and my encouragement to you to write down a compelling statement that articulates your purpose.

Today’s topic is on how to grow and manage your career while not sacrificing your role as a father. I think many people can relate that it seems like a no-win situation nowadays – either work lots of hours and advance in your career OR thrive in your family life. And for most guys, this is a conflict. We all have this innate drive to succeed, to win, to be leaders. But, we also see our families and how they struggle when we are gone too much or emotionally depleted when we are home. We yearn to win in both arenas, but it isn’t exactly easy.

Change is just a part of life. But, that doesn't make it easy. In order to thrive, our families need fathers who can effectively lead changes, whether big or small. Maybe it's relocating, it's a new job, a new church, or a new school, change is change and can't be underestimated.

In this episode, I give some helpful lessons learned over the years in how to navigate the changes your family will inevitably face.
