Today's episode I'm talking with a dad named Chad and his 16yr-old daughter McKinley down in Orange County California. Chad runs a very successful/busy financial firm Pacific Capital while also being the city treasurer, and still somehow manages to be an engaging and present father to his 5 kids. McKinley, a bright and successful soon-to-be-Junior who at 16 is thriving in academics, sports, and with friends, all while being smart-phone & social media free. I asked them both to come chat about how they've created this awesome relationship when so many other dads/daughters at this stage struggle. In a culture where the non-stop work grind to exhaustion is a symbol of affluence, the accumulation of more wealth, status, and stuff at the expense of our family relationships is suffocating our society, too many kids' emotional needs are being shoved aside for all the wrong reasons. This episode offers advice for parents who feel they've fallen into these traps and how to reprioritize and reconnect with the people who really matter. Support the show (https://www.paypal.me/savethekidsinc)
