Legendary Dads

By: Kevin Williams
  • Summary

  • “AAAHHHGG! Why on earth did I think I could be a dad, and build a business on top of that!?! What was I thinking?!” “I’m not sure I have what it takes to do this!”   “I don’t think I can keep it up much longer” Many men who are both dad and entrepreneur are plagued by these thoughts and questions (which often come wrapped in guilt, resentment, and/or shame). Most of the time this struggle is rooted in a poor concept of what a dad is ‘supposed’ to be. So we need to re-invent our concept of what it is to be ‘dad’, because being ‘dad’ isn't what it used to be. Most of us are stuck with the old instruction manual - if we have any manual at all.  Many of us are just faking it, hoping we don’t ruin our kids lives.  Lets walk together on the journey from being a ‘well-behaved’ dad who is doing what he thinks he’s supposed to and hoping its right, to becoming a ‘high performance’ dad who is clear on who he is, where he and his family are going and why. It’s an exciting and challenging process to be sure. And if you put in the work to being a ‘high performance’ dad, you’ll definitely become a Legendary Dad; one who’s legacy can never be taken away from his children and grandchildren. His legacy is a family that has all the resources they need to live the fullest and best life they can. That’s what makes him a family legend for generations! I believe we all have what it takes to give our families everything they need from us - whether its physical, social, mental/emotional, or financial needs, I have learned that we are capable of so much more than we ever dared imagine and that thinking we don’t have what it takes is something we’ve learned - it’s an idea that is only true if you choose to accept it. There are no participation trophies here. If you want the title, you’ll have to do the work. Being a legend doesn’t come easy, but it is absolutely worth the effort!

  • The Balance of Power
    Dec 29 2022

    Episode Summary

    In this episode Kevin explores his journey as it relates to the use of personal power in his marriage and as a Dad. He opens up about questions like:

    • What is personal power?; 
    • Is it okay to use power in our family? 
    • how can we fix an imbalance of power in a marriage?; 

    Our position and role as Dad comes with great responsibility and has significant impact on our spouse and our children. How we use our personal power and positional power can be a ‘game-changer’.

    About the Host:

    Married for over 22 years, and Dad to 4 young kids, Kevin is focused on helping Dads not only be the best they can be, but also leave the best for their family. He believes that everything rises and falls on leadership - and it starts on the inside. 

    Behind this passion for working with Dads, is a heart that cries for the children and wives who are missing out, struggling, or worse, because the men in their lives are not sure that they have what it takes.

    He knows from hard-won experience that all Dads have what it takes to provide fully and deeply what their family needs from them. “When things are looking rough,” he says, “we have to hold on to the truth that all of us are capable of far more than we realize. We can see this truth when we stand firm, and don't let the storms of life chase us away from those are counting on us.”

    Kevin encourages those who engage with him to take courage, and embrace the challenge of digging deep within to see their true heart; because everything we do in life - or don’t do - stems from who we are.
