How have fatherhood and family dynamics evolved over generations? In this compelling episode, we sit down with Jarom Rogers to explore the shifting landscape of parenting from his grandfather's no-nonsense military style to his own hands-on, emotionally connected approach. Growing up in Phoenix, Arizona, Jarom reflects on the influence of his Army veteran grandfather and how it shaped the more expressive parenting style of his father. Jarom shares how breaking away from traditional patterns has allowed him to become a more affectionate and engaged father.

We also discuss the bold career decisions that have shaped their family’s journey. Jarom talks candidly about his father's transition from the corporate world to entrepreneurship, choosing integrity and family well-being over job security.

Jarom’s insights offer a heartfelt look at the challenges and triumphs that come with stepping off the beaten path to forge a new, more fulfilling direction for the family.
