A few years ago, someone asked, “What do you do Jon?” I replied, “I’m a speaker, coach, and founder of Front Row Foundation.”
Then I paused…
Wait… let me try that again… “I’m a father and husband, and when I’m not doing that, I speak, coach, etc.” Parenting wasn’t something I did when I was off work. It was my primary work.
I used to have folders on my desktop for every area of my life and business, but nothing for my family.
I wasn’t approaching what I felt was a critical mission with the same intensity that I approached everything else — my business, charity, fitness, finances, etc.
Over the past 20 years, I’ve invested big to grow personally and professionally.
In 2003 I invested $10,000+ and 20 days at live events to train with Tony Robbins.
I recently invested significant amounts time, energy and resources to take my speaking business to the next level.
But, what about my family?
The Front Row Dads was the answer to that question. This is what was missing from my life.
Two years after starting Front Row Dads, my wife says, “You’re a much better dad since starting this group.”
She’s right. I’m learning with and from this brotherhood, and I’m deeply grateful.
I’m a husband and father of two amazing boys first, and when I’m not doing that, I’m a social entrepreneur who helps people live life in the front row.
