Welcome to this episode of Friday Reflections by Dad.Work!Every Friday I share the best of what we have been doing in the Dad.Work community, to provide perspective, new ideas, and motivation for you to continue on your journey to becoming the best man, partner, and father you can be.All of the wonderful responses I received from last week's Friday Reflections inspired today's episode, and this drew my attention...What do I truly want to give, rather than pushing myself through resistance because I feel obliged or obligated to?I've learned to be sensitive to resistance to the things I feel obligated to give or do over the years, and to only do what makes me happy and aligns with my core values. For example, in the men's groups, I enjoy sitting down and conversing with the dads... It makes my heart sing, and I'm rather good at it.The one takeaway from today's episode that I want to convey with you all is to always do what fills and provides joy to your heart, and most importantly, what resonates with your values. Making time to do what you enjoy can help you relieve stress, improve your mood, and, most importantly, allow you to show up at your best and influence lives.—-Welcome to the Dad.Work Podcast!It's my goal every episode to help dads suffer less, love more, and parent confidently.We'll be diving into mindfulness practices, healing trauma, conscious parenting, natural living, compassionate communication, the spiritual aspect of fatherhood, and more.There are a lot of amazing teachers and guides who help men become more aware and conscious, but there's not a lot of resources for men who are both fathers and interested in a mindful exploration of consciousness and improvement.This podcast aims to help bridge that gap.Resources, Links, Show Notes:https://dad.work/pod/Get our Free 14-Day Better Man, Better Dad Email Series:https://dad.work/email/Join one of our Men’s Groups for Dads and be seen, heard, supported, and challenged by a group of other fathers who have your back unconditionally:https://dad.work/group/
