Summary
Who are we supposed to be in relationships? As men, no one gives us a manual on how to communicate, be emotionally available, and give our spouse or partner what they need.
Today we have Dad Edge Alliance member Ed Dillon on the show. He is a single father of four who's had two failed marriages.
Ed spent years wondering why his relationships, including the ones with his kids, were falling flat.
He talks about what mindset shift took place that shed light on all he was doing wrong and how this lead to some of the most profound moments of connection in his life.
