Become the best husband and leader you can: www.thedadedge.com/mastermind
What if I told you that the secret to a thriving marriage isn't found in a heart-shaped box of chocolates or an overpriced Valentine's dinner? After years of coaching men and making my own mistakes, I've discovered that the real magic happens in those ordinary moments we usually take for granted.
In this week's Friday Fatherly Fumbles, First Downs, and Field Goals, I'm diving into both the challenges and opportunities that Valentine's Day presents. While I acknowledge the stress and commercialization of the holiday, I want to share five unique date ideas that can strengthen your relationship year-round. The key isn't in grand, one-time gestures. But in consistent, small actions that make our marriages fulfilling every single day, not just on February 14th.

Today, I have the privilege of sitting down with Scott Zemens who epitomizes the power of personal transformation within family life and fatherhood. Heās a dedicated business owner who, not long ago, found himself struggling to find balance in his lifeāfeeling distant from his family and yearning for deeper connections with his kids.

On top of that, he made a life-changing decision to give up alcohol for a year, a move that radically reshaped his mindset, relationships, and energy as a father.
The results have been extraordinary. His wife has expressed how much she loves the father heās become, especially his leadership in the home after the arrival of their baby last October. His kids now have a dad who listens more, talks less, and focuses on creating memories that will last a lifetime.
Today, weāll dive into his journeyāwhat inspired these changes, the lessons heās learned, and the advice heād give to his pre-Alliance self about stepping into the kind of father, husband, and leader his family deserves.
