Many of us take pride in being the "nice guy." But could being the nice guy be ruining our lives? We are all probably guilty of Nice Guy Syndrome on some level.

He talks about how to stop being dependent on external things for our happiness. He shows us how to reclaim our identities after losing ourselves in relationships.

If we don't know who we are or what's important to us, we will be driven by outside forces and will lack the strength to show up in our lives with purpose and integrity.

Today we talk about how to become a patient father. The Dad Edge started on one of the worst nights of my life as a dad. I lost my patience and did something I regret to this day. I didn't grow up with my dad in the picture, and the men in my life were not good father figures to me. I was raised in an uncertain, sometimes abusive, alcohol-ridden household. When I became a parent, I didn't have a clue. All I knew is what I didn't want to do, but that wasn't enough. Losing our temper does not mean that we are bad, hopeless people. We are only lacking the skills to talk ourselves down so that we can respond instead of reacting to the daily challenges of fatherhood. In this show, I give you a toolbox of strategies that you can use to understand the triggers, notice the signs, and disarm the bomb before it goes off.
