Curt Storing, founder of Dad Work, shares his journey of personal growth and transformation as a father and husband. He started Dad Work because he realized he was an awful dad and husband and wanted to change. Through self-awareness, meditation, and men's work, he was able to heal his past wounds and become a better father and husband. The biggest mistake he sees men making in their marriage and fatherhood is not taking on the role of a leader. Men need to lead emotionally, spiritually, relationally, and communicatively in order to create fulfilling family lives. In this conversation, Curt and Joel discuss the importance of leadership in relationships and the challenges of being imperfect. Curt shares his personal struggle with perfectionism and the need to appear perfect, which has impacted his relationships with his family. He also talks about his current focus on embracing his imperfections and learning to prioritize others over himself. The conversation then shifts to Curt's decision to step away from his successful business, Dad Work, and his journey of surrender and faith. Curt shares his new projects, including Truth Journals and Proclaim Podcasting.
