Physically Home, Mentally Gone Family Series David Schaub

Welcome to Episode 2 of David Schaub’s Family Series: a four-part solo run that gets honest about what it really looks like to build a business as a husband and father. No guests. No surface-level talk. Just the real tension most owners feel… and rarely say out loud. This episode hits a truth that stings: You can be physically home… and still completely gone. Growth isn’t bad. But undefined growth is dangerous—especially when it slowly steals your patience, your presence, and your peace. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why chasing “more” quietly costs patience and presence The guilt loop many business owners live in Why thin profit margins create thick tension at home What you must delegate, even if it costs money Why sleep is a leadership strategy, not a luxury How to define “enough” before ambition defines you If you feel like you’re showing up at home but not truly there, this episode will confront you in the right way and help you reset.
