We are in the business of building better families.
While most dads would say that family matters most, the challenge is they feel guilty knowing their careers get the best of them, and their family seems to get the rest of them.
We help Dads become family men with businesses, not businessmen who have families, so they can thrive personally AND professionally.

How's your sex life? 1-10 scale, if 10 means you're totally on fire!
How would you wife rate it?
When was the last time you had a totally honest chat about it?
Many guys think it's great (and their partner may or may not agree), while other guys wish it were 10x better.
A few years ago, for me personally, my wife and I were lacking something -- spoken clearly, things were predictable, routine and boring.
Like anything in life, having an extraordinary sex life takes focus, learning, experimenting and making adjustments along the way.
I decided it was time to up my game. I started putting in the work, learning as much as I could, and having open conversations about it.
I read books, listened to podcasts, talked with friends and guess what -- I didn't know everything. Go figure.
Since then, our sex life has caught fire.
True intimacy, on every level, is such an important part of a happy marriage, yet there are very few men who are having honest conversations about it, which is why I've invited sex and relationship coach, Alexa Martinez, on the podcast.
We're talking about why sex falls out of alignment between couples and the steps you can take to start transforming your sex life right now!

Over seven years ago, food activist, entrepreneur, filmmaker, and Café Gratitude founder Ryland Engelhart took a trip to New Zealand, where he saw a panel presentation that moved him to tears. He was convinced that there was simply too much carbon in the atmosphere. Even if humanity successfully reduced its emissions and decarbonized transportation, he likened the experience to slowly driving off a cliff.
But after this presentation, he saw another - and it helped him truly understand the connection between nature and humanity. He finally saw a way forward, a way to make the world better in seven generations, and could envision a pathway to the future that didn't end in catastrophe.
Over the next seven years, Ryland put together the Kiss The Ground documentary to share this discovery with as many people as possible, and I've been excited about this film for a long time. Narrated by Woody Harrelson and now streaming worldwide on Netflix, the film has been called "The key to combating climate change" by Forbes and lauded for inspiring "A rare feeling of hope" by the New York Times. My family and I watched the film twice in the last week, and I'm astounded by what Ryland has achieved.
In our conversation today, Ryland and I discuss the incredible journey that led to him making the movie, and how to consciously think about the deep connection between the health of our bodies and the planet in your daily practice. We explore how to use these concepts in your life, in nature, in your business, and in your family to create sustainable growth. As Dads and entrepreneurs, it's on us to protect and heal our families and the planet, and Ryland is issuing a call to arms in service of our planet.

If you're like many high achieving Dads, you probably know a thing or two about setting goals. But where a lot of guys struggle, is when it comes to creating and developing goals as a couple.
What happens if you're a goal setter, but your partner isn't? This can be a big point of contention in a relationship. But when you and your spouse are able to fully understand each other's core values, even when they don't totally match, it can allow your relationship to thrive.
Joining me today to talk about this is my good friend Geoff Woods. Geoff is the Vice President of The ONE Thing and the host of The ONE Thing podcast. He's on a mission to help people better invest their time and get better results – in all areas of life. Over the years, Geoff has helped many couples in all kinds of situations achieve success in their relationships. If things are going well, he can help you make them even better. And if they're not, well, he knows how to get you back on track.
Today's conversation is a great one. We're discussing the importance of goal setting as a couple and the impact it can make in your life. Last year, Tatyana and I attended a couples' goal setting retreat led by Geoff and his business partner Jay Papasan, and we experienced MAJOR breakthroughs. This year, Geoff will be offering this retreat virtually. If this is something that interests you (and by the end of this episode you'll know if it's for you), simply go to FrontRowDads.com/goals to get more information and enroll.
