Episode 136: How Fathers Can Shrink Their Integrity Gaps Living Wholehearted Podcast With Jeff and Terra

    • Parenting

Do you enjoy the episodes when the Mattsons jump on the podcast to share their own insights and the principles they live and lead from? Well today is one of those days.
 
Terra and Jeff are honest about their own humanity as they come alongside leaders from all over the country. So, Terra thought it would be fun to interview Jeff about his own journey as a dad to their two daughters as well as the many struggles and triumphs he sees walking alongside men who are attempting to shrink their own integrity gaps at home. Jeff shares a bit of his own personal losses with his father and how that has shaped his view of fatherhood for the better. He also talks about the role dads can play in the global Courageous Girls movement Jeff and Terra founded years ago. Being a dad is one of the most significant leadership roles any man can have. If you are dad, want to be a dad, have a dad, or you are enjoying the role as a grandad these days, listen to this episode. You will be encouraged and you will learn some key principles about what it means to be a dad who lives and leads with integrity. 
 
Jeff Mattson (MA ORGL) and Terra Mattson (MA LPC, LMFT) are the husband and wife team who co-founded Living Wholehearted and Courageous Girls. Living Wholehearted is a professional counseling and organizational leadership development firm outside Portland, Oregon, and Courageous Girls is a global movement and curriculum helping moms walk with their daughters at every stage of their growing years. Terra is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor, Executive Coach, speaker, and author of Courageous: Being Daughters Rooted in Grace (David C. Cook, 2020). Jeff is a former pastor, executive coach, organizational development consultant, and speaker. Together they co-authored Shrinking the Integrity Gap: Between What Leaders Preach and Live (David C. Cook, 2020).
 
As spokespeople for ChristianParenting.org and national speakers, they are now reaching millions of leaders and parents. Their audience is expanding daily with new initiatives like the American Association for Christian Counselors’ Nathan Project, helping pastors live with integrity, and the Christian Parenting Dear Mattsons YouTube series, answering real parenting questions from real parents. With two decades of experience in leadership coaching and trauma-informed therapy, they have the privilege of training and equipping leaders in for-profit and not-for-profit spheres, helping them address the people-issues that keep them up at night. They believe that wherever you go, who you are matters more than your title.
 
Terra recently partnered with Christian Parenting to create one-to-one courses for moms to walk with her daughter at every stage of her growing years. It’s called “A Christian Parenting Guide: Helping Moms Raise Confident Daughters”. Go to CPGUIDES.ORG to learn more.
