As parents, we all want to raise happy and healthy kids. Fathers often raise kids in a much different way than moms. Though their approach isn’t always appreciated and sometimes misinterpreted by their partners, dads are always doing their best in their own ways.

In this episode, we’ve got Terry and parenting expert Jim Jackson of Connected Families to talk about how to navigate doubts and triggers for dads. We’re also going to talk about the idea of paradigm shifts, how to achieve great communication with your kids, and how to be on the same page with your partner. 

Jim and Terry will also talk about what the word “work” really means for dads, how to apply scriptures in your parenting, and ultimately connect with your children!
