Showing Up: Leadership, Fatherhood, and the Hunt

from Antler Up Podcast · host Sportsmen's Empire

In Episode 302 of the Antler Up Podcast, I sit down with Troy Smith — a husband, father, teacher, and coach who understands what real leadership looks like both in and out of the woods. Troy and I go back to our days coaching varsity baseball against each other, and this conversation goes well beyond hunting. We dive into leadership through coaching and teaching, the responsibility of setting standards for young athletes, and how those same principles carry over into family life and the outdoors.We also talk about raising kids in the outdoors, the discipline that comes from fitness and consistency, and what it means to define success in this season of life. Troy shares how hunting has helped shape his approach as a father and mentor, and why bringing his family into the woods has become such an important part of who he is. This episode is honest, grounded, and full of takeaways for anyone trying to balance family, work, and personal growth while still chasing what matters.So, grab your gear, sit back, and join us on this episode as we Antler Up!www.tethrdnation.comwww.huntworthgear.comwww.sportsmensempire.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
