We’re back with a fresh episode—and a homemade podcast jingle to prove it! 🎶 Travis kicks us off with the usual dad banter, mic checks, and desk comparisons before jumping into a fun new segment:
👉 "What Does This Word Mean?" inspired by his recent run-in with a chimney sweep 😂
But the heart of today’s episode?
How do we help our kids do hard things—especially when they’re scared?
We explore:
💬 The fine line between pushing your kids vs. supporting them
🏞️ Travis’s cliff-jumping moment in Hawaii and what it taught him as a dad
🎤 Navigating those early “hard things” like school presentations or trying new skills
🧠 Why doing hard things as a family builds courage, confidence, and character
Plus, we share personal experiences and reflect on:
• How to gauge readiness vs. resistance in your child
• Tools for building trust through tough moments
• How your own story with fear shapes the way you parent
This one’s a mix of fun, real talk, and honest reflection—just how we like it around here.
