From a Fatherless Home to Becoming the Dad He Never Had – with Paden Squires

What happens when the little boy who never had a steady dad decides to become the most intentional father on the planet?

In this warm, powerful Episode 76 of Hear Where You Belong, CPA & entrepreneur Paden Squires shares how growing up in rural Missouri with an in-and-out dad and a hustling single mom lit a fire in him—not just to build a successful tax-planning firm from his kitchen table, but to give his three kids (two daughters and a son) the presence, curiosity, and love he always craved.

You’ll hear:

• Why being a dad tops every business win (and how having a son actually scared him at first)

• The 4:50 AM miracle morning that changed everything

• How he went from broke college kid to owning a thriving firm—without ever taking the “safe” corporate path

• Why most adults have forgotten how to answer the simple question kids nail: “What do you want?”

• The real reason work-life balance is a myth (and what he does instead)

If you’ve ever wanted to break a cycle, rewrite your family story, or simply remember how to dream like a kid again—this conversation is pure medicine.

Hit play and remember: the life you build tomorrow starts with the father (or mother, or human) you choose to be today.
