#191 Getting Dad More Involved

Many moms feel the burden of parenting teens is on their shoulders and wish that dad would be more involved in their teens life. Today we are going to talk about why the fathers role is so important. Todays guest Patrick Cummings talks about his obsession with work as an entrepreneur. And how this took him away from his family and negatively impacted his teens. In this episode Patrick tells us how he turned that around. Patrick Cummings is an entrepreneur, business coach, and wealth management advisor who—after giving his all for twelve years to the corporate world—decided to start his own business so he could be closer to his young children and rebalance his life. Patrick has made a career out of being a family man, and his expertise and honest accounts of his own mistakes and triumphs would offer the perfect mentorship and encouragement to parents struggling to balance work and family.  Patrick’s new book, The Family-Business Balancing Act, provides an inspiring guide that helps business owners gain perspective and take steps toward achieving harmony and balance in their lives—so their work and their relationships can thrive To find out more contact Patrick at https://www.pnpstrategies.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.
