Why I’m All In to Help Dads Succeed

Hey Reader,

When I was starting out with my first ideas of what to do as a business—
I was looking to help troubled teenagers.
They felt hurt by the system and had a life of trouble.

One idea was to start a farm where they could learn
and feel a healthy routine and environment.
This idea was undoubtedly expensive.

Then I asked myself:
What would make the issue go away?

When I looked at all the troubled teens,
many of them had a pattern.

A lot of them had an absent father.
This means either:

  • They were raised by a single mom
  • Or they had a dad at home, but he’s barely there
  • Or they are gone for business
  • Or they have two/three jobs to keep the family afloat.

This observation hit home.

A lot of the trouble teens might not have so many troubles
if the dad was more present.

There was one more level to it as well:

I want to set myself up so that I could be a Present Dad.

Which meant:
I would need a way to make money to provide
while also being present for my family.

Having a degree in forestry and agriculture
and a love for scents,
I thought it would be great to start my own business.

The goal of the business would be to help dads be more present at home.

So I designed an outdoor program for more quality time with your kids.

Then another issue entered my recognition:
More quality time means dads need more time.

That’s why they liked the program but gave it to the moms.

That’s when I realized:

It is not about the kids.
It is about dads having time to be there.

That’s when the vision was born.

Why I’m in:
To become a Present Provider.
For dads to have time to lead their family well.

Keep chopping Wood!

    Hey Reader, In business, we are often tempted to jump on big trends. We often feel like we’re missing out if we don’t. Especially at the beginning, it’s hard.

A friend and I went fishing together. When we arrived at the lake, it was often that way that others were leaving. So you just lost. Ash…
