This week in @4fitfatherhood (12/7)

The comments section is in shambles yet again. A post from John Bernthal's Real Ones podcast has poured gasoline on an already well-lit fire. Get my take on the whole things as well as what I'm reading. On the suggestion of a past guest I picked up Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters by Meg Meeker. Great book especially for girl dads like myself. I seriously suggest reading it or grabbing it on audible.

Father Forward and unload your backpack

Often we're discouraged because of some tough challenge or obstacle in our way. But a shift in mindset from a Zen proverb can change everything: “The obstacle is the path.” The obstacle isn't something standing in our way. It's the way itself. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/4fitfatherhood/support
