Being the Best Father You Can Be and What That Even Means
Manage episode 330466873 series 3003245
Whatever type of parent you are, the world often categorizes you and you are set to behave and see the rest of the world through lenses that have already been created for you. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Our guest, Justin Batt, joins us today to talk about the real meaning of parenthood, specifically, fatherhood. Justin is the founder of Daddy Saturday Foundation, a 501(c)(3), and The Fatherhood Institute, LLC. He is a husband, a father of 4, TEDx international speaker, author, and an athlete.
On the show, Justin discusses what fatherhood means to him and ways we can optimize our roles in our family units even through the exceptionally busy lives we all lead in society. He shares that he writes obituaries with his wife at the start of every year to reflect on life and their goals. By doing this, they are able to live the present to the fullest. He talks about the importance of children seeing their fathers as human, which means that seeing a parent fail might only strengthen their self worth as they become adults.
Justin is on a mission to reignite and restore fatherhood around the world and change the next generation through events, experiences, education and technology that end the cycle of fatherlessness. Justin has created a for-profit and a non-profit to create education and experiences that will impact 10 million fathers in the next 10 years and end fatherlessness. Justin has the pleasure of working with entrepreneurs, business leaders, politicians, celebrities, athletes and other incredible people who desire to build their brand and business with a book.
