Why the Best Dads Prioritize Marriage First: The Advice That Changed My Family w/Charlie Hoehn
What do Tim Ferriss, Ramit Sethi, Cody Sanchez, and our very own Front Row Dad Geoff Woods have in common?
They’ve all trusted Charlie Hoehn—the brilliant mind behind some of the most successful books of the past decade.
Charlie is the co-founder of Author Inc., a bestselling author himself, and a man who’s built his career helping world-class entrepreneurs share their stories. But behind the scenes, he’s also a deeply intentional father, husband, and leader.
And in Part 1 of our conversation, we don’t talk business—we go deep into fatherhood, marriage, mental health, and what it really means to win at home and in life. Here’s what you’ll get from this heartfelt and powerful conversation:
📖 The Unexpected Power of Books: How Charlie’s childhood obsession with reading became his superpower—and why books might be your parenting secret weapon in a screen-addicted world.
🧠 Facing Fatherhood Depression: The battle Charlie fought in silence, how he resisted help for years, and the simple act of courage that saved his family.
⚾ Lessons from a Legendary Dad: What Charlie learned from his father’s calm, present, and intentional presence—and how you can apply it to your own fatherhood journey.
🌈 Confidence Through Creation: How bedtime improv stories with his daughter turned into a real children’s book—and how you can create powerful memories and confidence in your kids, too.
🔥 Trial by Fire: Charlie’s raw, real story about the financial pressure of being the provider—and how his darkest moments became his biggest breakthroughs.

FRD is solving a huge problem for dads. Our culture has turned “Dad” into a joke. Go ahead, google Dad and you’ll find Dad Bod, Dad Jokes, Dad Weed, etc. Culturally, it’s a Homer Simpson mentality, and it’s BS.
Our community is built for solid men. Men with range. Those who are badass, and know there’s still more to learn, together.
Most guys find it hard to find “their crew.” Finding other committed men who are successful in life and want to put family first – these guys are rare. Is this you?
In FRD, hundreds of men from all over the world show up for each other, to share resources and raise the bar of fatherhood (our core values.)
If you’re reading this, you want to grow. Podcasts are great, but guys, when you’re ready to stop just listening to content and want to JOIN the conversations, the FRD brotherhood is ready for you.
