Psychological safety. It's not something that we think a whole lot about, even though we talk a lot about,

a man's innate desire to protect those he's closest to. But when it comes to the mental and emotional safety of our loved ones,

we often fall short. My guest today is my good friend Larry Hagner, who is the founder of the dad edge and dad edge podcast.

Today Larry and I talk about powerful communication strategies with our wife and kids.

How crucial climate is when it comes to communicating effectively how curiosity serves as a powerful lubricant for improving our conversations and how to effectively create psychological safety for our loved ones to open up to us.

You're a man of action. You live life to the fullest.

Embrace your fears and boldly charge your own path when life knocks you down. You get back up one more time every time. You are not easily deterred and defeated.

Rugged, resilient, strong. This is your life. This is who you are. This is who you will become. At the end of the day and after all is said and done, you can call yourself a man.

Gentlemen, what is going on today? My name is Ryan Nicler. I'm the host and the founder of the Order of Man podcast and movement. Welcome here today. If you're new, it's my job to get incredible men.

These are guys who are successful on the business front, the home front, the entrepreneur front, the physical fitness front. You name it. If they're successful in any way, I want to get these guys on the podcast.

I have good conversations with them, extract some of their knowledge, their wisdom, their information, their failures, their setbacks, and what they've done to succeed in life and deliver that to you.

So we've had guys like Ben Shapiro, Andy Frasilla, Jocco, Willing, Terry Cruz, Tim Tebow, the lineup of guys that we have on this podcast is phenomenal.

So I think the same can be said for my friend Larry, who's joining us today. Now before we get into the conversation, just want to mention that we've got my good friends over at Origin USA with a couple of exciting things.

Obviously starting to cool off a little bit so they've got their American made boots. I would recommend the bison boot. That's one of my favorite.

I've got their denim, which again, 100% made in Source to America. I like the Delta jeans. And also they've got their new hunt line, which I have on the way I haven't received it yet, but I've seen it floating around.

I know some friends who've got their stuff on I want mine so I can finish out the year in success with my hunts using 100% made and Source to America gear.

So if you're interested in the boots, the denim or the hunt lineup, go check out origin USA dot com origin USA dot com and use the code order or our DER at checkout because you're going to save some money when you do.

All right guys, let me introduce you to my friend Larry. We both got our start in the world of podcasting, excuse me, in creating these these digital movements around the same time 2015.

And he has been a trusted friend and advocate and also a coach to me sense. And he has made it his life's mission to serve men as it relates to their marriage and fathering their children. He's also the author of his book, the dad edge and his upcoming book early next year, the pursuit of legendary fatherhood guys enjoy this one.

That's up man, great to see you again. And of course, have you back on the podcast. What's up, man. It's good to see you. It is last time we were in St. Louis, I guess, right? Was it St. Louis that are do we want to do each other? Yeah, we were breakfast, but I can it all kind of started to blend together is traveling around so much for a very short period of time.

I'm like I was in Texas and I was in I think Florida and then I went to St. Louis. I was all over the place for a little period of time. So it's hard to string together when it all plans together like that, you know.

Yeah, man, it was it was gosh, it was probably six months ago and you actually introduced me to a Mexican breakfast that I've never had.
