The Butterfly Effect
All of us receive messages from our parents at an early age that we carry with us into our adult life, often without realizing it. These messages can be useful, but they can also inflict unintended emotional damage on us and others. In this episode we discuss two messages we each received in our childhood, the way those impacted us, and how reducing their influence is possible once you identify them.

Honoring Unique Identity
Fathers often see (or hope to see) sons in their image. But from the beginning, there are two unique identities. Fathers have hopes and expectations while sons comply or rebel. We talk about two shared memories where there was an attempt to honor our unique identities. We give our individual perspective on each and explore why one didn't go as expected and the other met with mutual respect.

When Did We Know? Turning Points
So much between fathers and sons can be lost in translation. We wanted to take you to the exact moment when we each knew that our relationship had fundamentally changed. They are not the same moment yet both offer a window into the transition from parent child to an adult to adult relationship.

The Start of a Seemingly Impossible Journey
Welcome to the CEO and son podcast! In this first episode, we introduce ourselves and hope will be inspired and encouraged by the possibility of healing and close friendship between fathers and sons. Hopefully, this will be the start of a new conversation whether you are a father or a son. Uncommonly vulnerable, we don’t preach or offer fix it formulas. Instead, we offer hope through a long gritty reality that very close friendships are possible.

My new favorite podcast!!
Goodness, is this podcast a winner. I love the hard-earned rapport between Andy and Scott, I love how they seamlessly weave humor and depth, and I love learning SO MUCH GOOD in such a short amount of time. I feel like I’m getting to listen in on a conversation years in the making, one that might never have happened were it not for some grit and some grace. This is a FANTASTIC podcast and highly recommended.
