All they want from me is a present and kind person.

By · Founder and CEO coach · 70 founders and CEOs coached across 15 countries

Here’s a sobering stat: 75% of the time we spend with our children over their lives is before they turn 12.

I say this not to frighten you, but to stress how important our roles as parents are.

A client recently told me his greatest wish: for his daughter to look back in 20 years and say “my dad was there.”

In this video, I discuss how to be a whole human at home for your family.

I hope you find it useful and would love to hear your thoughts.

New for December: The December Homecoming. Ten weeks, one to one, for 3 founders who want to go into the new year rested and home for dinner. Applications close Friday 27 November.
