In this episode, there are some very big takeaways.  One of the big ones for fathers, and parents in general is to take care of yourself.  We can get caught up in taking care of ourselves last and then find that we are not doing a good job taking care of those around us.  We must realize that we are all a work in progress and continue to grow but also have grace for ourselves.  The vulnerability that Craig has to share his life is amazing, the way he shares his life is always in hopes that those around him grow.  ----------Welcome a new dad into his role: https://www.adventureoffatherhood.com/Order The Adventure of Fatherhood children's book hereCheck out the TEDx----------Want to learn more about The Adventure of Fatherhood?https://www.adventureoffatherhood.com/https://www.rebelandcreate.com/Each week Ned sits down with a dad and asks him to open up his field notes and share with other men who find themselves on the Adventure of Fatherhood.Follow us:Instagram: www.instagram.com/rebelandcreateYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/rebelandcreate/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rebelandcreate
