July 9, 2025Improving father hood improved my entire life.
Talking through these laws with other like minded fathers was transformational. Hearing other perspectives and strategies on how to deal with a complex family system was priceless. I wish I could have a mastermind of Dad's every month, until we need to make it a fellowship of GrandFathers. 😂
