Life Before Balance

from Fathering Our Future · host Anthony Vandagriff

As a dad, one of your greatest concerns and pursuits is time with your family. Like everyone else you turn your attention to what is known as work-life balance. What if I told you that was not the right place to start? What if immediately pursuing work-life balance is putting the cart ahead of the horse? I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about this and I have come to realize the idea of work-life balance is misguiding. What we want is freedom and time with our family. We analyze our lives, which often feel overly chaotic, and we work on bringing order to what is. Even if you are herald as the to-do list king, you are likely still struggling to obtain what you are striving for. In this episode, I provide the starting point for you to obtain what you truly desire and it is not a how-to on balancing your life and your work. There is an evaluation to perform and a question to consider before you make a move. Start here, and you’ll be on the path to get more time with your family. — JOIN THE WAITLIST!
