Episode 188 - Maury Wood - Grit and Wit For Dads - Give Your Kids Permission to Ask Questions Without Fear
life’s too short to take seriously all the time — and way too long not to laugh at yourself along the way.
Grit & Wit is where real-life stories meet a little sarcasm, a little wisdom, and a lot of "well, that didn't go as planned." It’s faith, family, and finding the good stuff — even when you’re dodging laundry piles and rogue snakes in the kitchen.
Now also available in surround sound:
The Grit & Wit Podcast on Spotify — real talk on parenting, marriage, faith, and whatever chaos shows up next
YouTube Channel — stories, reflections, and moments that hit home (and hit your funny bone)

Currently writing a book inspired by a handwritten letter from my grandmother — a story about legacy, grit, and the lessons that last. Coming soon.
Also featured on podcasts like Dad Up, Dad Space, Living the Next Chapter, and The Family Teams Podcast, with more to come. You can give them a listen in the Grit and Wit in the Wild tab.
No spam. No ads. No lectures. Just a guy with a few scars, a lot of memories, and a stubborn streak trying to make sense of it all — and helping you do the same.
Pull up a chair. It’s going to be fun.
