One day very soon, you won’t be able to carry your kids on your shoulders. One day very soon, will be the last game you coach them in sports. One day very soon, they will be moving on from middle school to high school. One day very soon, they will be wearing a cap and gown ready to leave the nest. Dads, that’s our future. We can’t stop it. We can’t hold it back as much as we’d like to. The key is what we do with it now. How we show up intentionally for our kids today. How we give them everything we have. How we share strategies, tools and tactics that we didn’t have growing up. That’s the legacy that will live on past us. That’s the movement that is The Warrior Dad Experience. Dads that answer the call change their lives and their kids' lives forever. It’s not for the common man. It’s for that dad who feels that itch inside and wants to crush life personally and professionally. Knows that time is fleeting with his kids and wants to ensure he does all he can for them. You can be that ONE DAD who changes his family tree forever. Dare to be uncommon. Love, lead, legacy. Create a legendary day! P.S. If you’re ready to answer the call, that voice you hear in your head, the one that never goes away, send me a DM with the word WARRIOR. #dads #dad #dadsmatter #dadlife #parenting #parentingtips #parenthood #family #familyfirst #fatherhood
Blink and you'll miss it. The time is going to pass either way, so keep your eyes open and be focused.

Every moment with your kids is precious, cherish them while you can. 🌟

What a great reminder Jeff. It's what we do today with our kids that matters. They will only remember the time and love spent on them. Leave that as a legacy.
Take it from a Dad whose children are grown (38, 35, & 24) it is literally a “blink”. There will always be another work day or ball game with buddies or whatever. There is a small window with our kids. Thanks Jeff Wickersham!
Jeff Wickersham you know how I feel about kids on dads shoulders!
Jeff - this one really hit home! I was out at a golf tournament yesterday with my oldest two and seeing first how how finite that time is. It was a beautiful moment and I was able to be present with them. Thank you for this encouragement!

2moIf you are dad and you want to do better for your tiny clan, The Warrior Dad is the support and framework you can count on. The cool thing is you’ll get inspired by the other dads in your group. You’ll see the struggles of the “perfect” dad and the struggles of the dad who has a long way to go. You will see yourself in both because you are both. The fellowship will help you drive results and accountability. It is about a myriad of micromoments where you can lead without needing to feel like a General or a POTUS. These moments create real traction for your Dadship and peace in your marriage- all by stacking very tiny little wins that give you the confidence to turn your whole family around toward common goals! I hope you consider being a Warrior Dad. Aren’t you exhausted by the anxiety of the passive drift of American Dadship? To Hell With That - we have one shot to leave a legacy. We have one shot to break the cycle of passivity. We have more power in us than a leaf helplessly swirling down a gutter or drifting upon a stream. We can be the rock in the river. We can become the river itself. It is up to us. Tick Tock. 8th grade graduation today! I’ve got 4 years left to change family’s world forever.
