56 "Divorce changed me from a father to a dad" with Ron Blair
Description
“The best advice I can give myself as a dad is to stay present in the home,” Ron Blair on DADicated.com
Ron Blair is currently going through a divorce and has 100% custody. His marriage and family culture are a tale of 2 distinct families which has impacted his parenting style. His dad is his hero and he wanted to emulate that for his 3 teenagers (18, 15 & 12).
Ron is President and Chief Operating Officer of Century Group, an executive recruiting and professional staffing company.
In the session, he shares openly about the impact divorce had on him & his family-life; what changed and what benefits he gained. Ron talks about co-parenting, support from family and his relationship with his father. Explaining divorce to kids, communicating love and truth, and recognising loss are just some of the incredible topics we cover in this amazing session.
The most powerful takeaways for me as a dad were:
- Our pasts are carried forward
- Being present is not merely a physical feature but also a mental one
- The truth must be confronted at some point
