The Dad Central Show


Nov 22, 2022

This episode of The Dad Central Show explores a common challenge dads face - learning to balance all the demands on your time and energy.

Most dads want to be successful, enjoy their family and take care of their health, but it often feels like we're not able to balance them all. When that happens, we can struggle.  That struggle looks different for each dad, but common challenges include becoming impatient, insensitive, demanding, irritable, angry or withdrawn. How can you balance all the demands, expecially when life gets crazy and not have that happen? And if you can't balance them all, then what? Are you destined for a life of misery or sacrifice?

The answer is no. You can achieve success, enjoy your family and be healthy all at the same time. It just takes having the right mindset and learning some skills along the way. In this replay of a webinar we hosted in 2021, three dads talk about this topic and share their insights and practical steps to find their balance.

After listening you’ll know:

  • Why ‘achieving balance’ is actually the wrong goal
  • What is most important for managing extreme demands and staying sane
  • Why creating time and space for the unplanned might be the most valuable part of your calendar
  • How to get support when life feels out of control

About The Dad Central Show
