Jeff Nelligan is a Veteran, Author, and a resilience-raising father of 3 military sons. His latest book, “Four Lessons from My Three Sons - How You Can Raise Resilient Kids” pulls no punches in expressing observed deficiencies in guiding today’s children towards mental toughness.

Tune in, as Jeff shares powerful parenting insights on tasking our children from a young age to help them develop their decision-making and problem solving skills. We also discuss the importance of full transparency when explaining the harsh realities of life. Jeff also talks about how not only sports can reinforce the hard lessons of life, but other interests as well, such as Physics, Robotics, Scouting, and more.
