Beta testing the rough draft of my book "Fatherhood As Leadership" This is for all of the dads that feel "stuck." These are some best practices I have picked up as an old dad, just wanted to get us all thinking about the incredible privilege and responsibility we have as Fathers. My plan is to do a chapter a week. Peace and Love.

The importance of Dads and Community.

What do you do with all of the rage? Bottle it up and explode? Fight strangers at bars? Shoot guns? There's got to ba natural conversion that I'm missing. If we can visualize it we can build it.

Good Fathers is an idea, really. Fatherhood is the common rallying point to do good for our communities as well as be a support to one another. No agendas, Nothing for sale.

The opinions expressed here are my own and subject to change. Stay curious!

Update on O man’s Doose Syndrome/ check-in/ invite

I sat down and talked with Sun Prairie WI GoodFather Dugan Sherbondy. Dugan's daughter Eva suffered a traumatic brain injury after what Dugan describes as a "fluke" accident. He was brave enough to share some of that experience in hopes that it helps other fathers going through a similar journey. Thank you to Dugan for his vulnerability and willingness to share.

Let's meet at the intersection of Fatherhood and go from there? Fathers helping Fathers.
