My child doesn’t need me to be his hero. He needs me to be present. I think it’s harder to be present.

Parents, we’d love to hear how you maintain alignment and your head when your kids push your buttons.

Parenting requires wisdom. Parents, how do you go about being wise and understanding with your children?

Parents out there. Jump in here for a conversation about parenting through alignment and proactive love rather than reactive anger.

I love making this show with my friend Josh. In a time when the world is spinning out of control, how do we parent well?! Listen in and comment the ways you remain present and loving for your children.

Awe in small moments is a foundational concept I’m relying on in parenting. Like taking in the pink clouds and sunrise for 20 seconds before taking my 1st grader to school today.

I’m officially the age where watching football means I cringe in fear of catastrophic injury every play. Despite that I still watch.

To love someone means to reveal to them their beauty, their worth, and their importance.

What are you 2 favorite things about Bluesky so far?

What are 2 things you wish existed here?

I’ve heard it said, “the life you want is on the other side of hard”
That might be true…
But I am starting to think
“The life you want is on the other side of kindness”

Wish I could buy ads for the good.store on BlueSky. But since I can't: Give the gift of good store this holiday season! Coffee! Tea! Puzzles! Socks! Soap! Shampoo bars!

100% of profit goes to charity. It's a great gift that you can feel great about.

BlueSky neighbors,
Here’s a conversation we’ve been having. I’d love to hear thoughts on cultivating masculinity.

According to my likes, I’m here solely for the nature photos…. I’m learning about myself. Gee thanks, Bluesky.

Happy to be here. It feels similar to when I first accessed Twitter and Fb in 2006ish. Pretty boring and right on pace with what makes sense.
