283. My Kids Were Scared of Me… That Was the Line in the Sand (w/ Jason Crittle)

from High Performance Father Podcast

For 30 years, Jason Crittle told himself he had it under control. But at home he was gone. Drinking early, smoking late, sitting on the verandah all night, kids in their rooms, wife in the other room. No presence. No leadership. Just a man hiding behind the mask of "I provide." Then Father's Day hit and everything erupted. Jason walked out and faced the truth: he wasn't functioning at all. He was losing his family. In this raw conversation, Jason shares how he went from "I'm lost, I've got no goals" to quitting alcohol and smoking, dropping 20kg, rebuilding trust, returning to date nights, and stepping into a new identity: becoming a gentleman. If you've ever looked in the mirror and thought, "I need to change… but I can't," this one will hit you right in the chest.
