Show Notes
As fathers, we are driven to master the multiple roles we fulfill in our kids’ lives. Whether we find ourselves as a mentor, protector, provider, role model, hero, coach, or cheerleader, we want to ensure we are teaching our kids what it takes to succeed in life. Today, we are joined by Zach Lush; father, stepfather, co-parent, entrepreneur, fitness expert, coach, and former-MLB player. In this episode Zach shares how his unique journey of underdog-athlete-turned-pro helped shape him into the father, visionary, and business owner, he is now. He also shares how his experiences taught him a great deal about fatherhood, resiliency, and mastering the art of discipline, and how you can do the same. Zach is an inspiration to us all and I’m excited about the powerful lessons and insight he’ll leave with you today, lessons of failure, resiliency, discipline, success and so much more!
