176: How I rebuilt my relationship with my son, Eric Story

It's one thing to apply leadership principles in the business world, but it's a whole different ball game with the people you're the closest and most attached to in your personal life. Mack thought it would be great to give you a real-life example of how the principles he talks about can be applied in your personal life with your family. This episode features Mack and his 29 year old son Eric having an unscripted conversation about Mack's transformation as a father. Mack got it so wrong as a father that he and Eric didn't have a relationship while Eric was between the ages of 15-19 years old. For more on this, be sure to listen to Mack discuss this in Episode #20. In this episode, you'll hear Mack and Eric discuss the catalyst that allowed them to rebuild their relationship.  A relationship that has been tremendously strong for the past 10 years.
