Ken is a divorced father of 3 and takes extreme pride in being the absolute best Dad he can be. Ken has struggled with everything from an extremely flawed legal system to being admonished as a dad. Formerly a Vice President for a huge company Ken learned firsthand that corporate success rarely translates to personal success. Ken’s path; like most of us was going from bad to worse but fortunately, he happened upon some hope. Brooding in anger he sunk lower and lower until making the eventual observation that changed his course. Luckily, Ken was able to pull out of his crater but it’s never easy. Seeing his corporate job becoming less and less fulfilling and taking him away from his family for ever longer periods of time, Ken capitalized on a chance opportunity to be intentional about his future. Ken is using his experiences through divorce and the legal system to help others in the same situations he found himself in. He helps men avoid common pitfalls that often befall the unsuspecting divorced Dad as they often unknowingly become victims of their own self-destructive patterns. Please join us for this inspirational story and get connected with Ken to change your own path for the best.   Show notes: 6:08 - Back in the day 7:40 - Guy humor 9:35 - Journal & Legacy 12:23 - WRD Mantra 13:03 - Response vs. Reaction 15:00 - Single parent epiphany, Compassion 20:49 - Bomb Crater 24:39 - Common denominator 26:58 - Are you kidding me!? 32:28 - Epiphany by way of Dr. Steve Maraboli 36:48 - Circumstances = Success 38:18 - Rock 41:12 - Struggle to success www.thedivirceddadscoach.com 45:54  - Advice: Picture success 48:19 - substitute for curse 48:59 - Favorite Age: Meet them where they’re at. 49:27 - Best Dad Skill 54:42 - Cornerstone Trait 56:14 - Lifelong learning. 57:02 - Motivation: Erick Thomas, Daren Hardy, Bruce VanHorn 58:54 - Get up and get on with it. 59:14 - Fathers Rights Twitter: @kenjaquith www.thedivorceddadscoach.com CLICK HERE to leave a Rating & Review on iTunes Connect with other RAD DADS!
