  • A Dad's Legacy: Susan L. Combs On Her Dad's Impact & The Pancakes For Roger Movement
    Jul 29 2024
    Have you ever wondered how impactful a father's influence can be in shaping the lives of their children, even long after they're gone? In today's rapidly changing world, many parents struggle with balancing career success, humility, and authentic connections with their children. Discovering the powerful impact of a father's mentorship and legacy might just be the key to navigating these challenges. Three takeaways: - Gain insight into the transformative power of a father's influence on his children's lives. - Learn how to maintain humility and authenticity in the face of success and societal pressures. - Discover the inspiring story of how a personal experience turned into a movement for community betterment. Listen to the episode now and unlock the profound wisdom of fatherhood and the enduring impact of a dad's influence on his children's lives. About Susan L. Combs Combs is President of Combs & Company, a full-service insurance brokerage firm based in New York City. Susan started the company at twenty-six years old with a drive to “Do more, better.” This internal mantra has resulted in numerous successes and firsts, like being named the youngest National President in the over eighty-five-year history of Women in Insurance & Financial Services (WIFS) and the first female Broker of the Year winner for BenefitsPro. Susan is “a Missouri girl in a New York world,” and it’s the lessons she learned during her Midwestern upbringing and two-plus decades in New York City that are the basis of this book. The insights contained in these pages come from family, friends, colleagues, and life in general. But the most important teachings are from her late father. It was his steady guidance in life that set Susan’s foundation and it was his passing that inspired her new movement, Pancakes for Roger (www.PancakesForRoger.com). When Susan’s not running her business or trying to help others through their own challenges, you can find her flipping tires at her beloved CrossFit gym, supporting the Missouri Tigers, KC Chiefs, and Royals, or slaying the dragons that have come her way.

Quality time over quantity: The conversation emphasizes the importance of quality time spent with children. It's not just about the quantity of time but about being genuinely present and engaged with your kids. Fatherhood comes first, and finding the right balance between career and family is essential. 3. Prioritize tangible targets: Kevin Baker stresses the need for setting tangible targets, both in parenting and in self-care.
