About this episode
Every parent plays "roles".
Some play the hero, some play the doormat, some play the drill sergeant.
Other play the role of homework nagger, reminder, or social chair.
Some play good cop... and others play bad cop.
The problem?
Sometime we choose poor roles!
Most parents don’t even realize the role they’re stuck in—and their kids and the connection, are paying the price.
In this episode, Sean pulls back the curtain on the roles we slip into when parenting gets hard, why those roles shape our kids’ future, and how to step into the one role your family actually needs: a strong, wise leader.
Parenting isn’t theater.
Your role matters.
Choose wisely—or your kids will remember the part you played forever.
