We didn't get a manual before our kids arrived and we strapped them into the car seat to take them home. We're figuring it out, but choosing not to go it alone. That's why we created SkilledDad. SkilledDad is a resource for dads of all seasons to learn the things that they can do and engage, so that they can equip the next generation for success. We interview dads just like you and hear their story. They may not all be famous. They may not all have written books. But they are writing their story everyday. Subscribe to TheSkilledDad podcast and join our host, Zach Reeser as he meets with and learns from other dads' stories, what they have learned, and what we can apply on our journey to becoming the SkilledDad.

We need to ensure that we can stay in peak shape for moments like this, or games of basketball, o...
