Ep. 512 Griff Erickson: How to Raise Kids Who Know Love & Hard Work
Griff Erickson — former pro baseball player turned father of three — shares how he’s learning to “keep it simple” and “stay approachable” while raising kids who know what real love, hard work, and character look like. From life’s unexpected curveballs to messy garages and fatherhood’s hidden gift of leaning into the hard, Griff opens up about what it means to “love the suck,” show up for your kids, and build a solid foundation at home when life never stays tidy for long. If you’ve ever wondered how to stop yelling, stay present, and create a family culture your kids run toward — this episode will inspire you to rebel against low expectations and embrace the beautiful mess of fatherhood.
