being a man

Episode 203 of the Fit Father Project Podcast is about being a man and doing everything possible to lead your family with dignity and honor. 

In this episode, you’ll meet Larry Hagner, the founder of The Dad Edge, an organization dedicated to helping men, husbands, and fathers with the necessary skills to navigate fatherhood.

He’s also the host of the Dad Edge Podcast and the author of The Dad’s Edge and The Spirit of Fatherhood.

Larry highlights the five dimensions of being a man: marriage, parenting, leadership, finances, and health. He emphasizes the need for men to learn and implement skills in these areas to create fulfilling relationships and positive memories with their children. 

He also discusses the impact of generational trauma and the importance of being a pattern breaker, sharing his personal story of overcoming a victim mindset and the power of taking intentional action. 

If you want to create a stronger bond with your partner and children and build a more solid family foundation, you’ve got to listen to this episode!

Key Takeaways:

  • It is possible to accept limitations without falling into a victim mindset and to maintain positivity in the face of challenges.
