JEFF PUTNAM | BUILDING A RUGGED LEGACY

Published: June 3, 2020, 11:41 a.m.

Jeff Putnam is the married father of no less than 9 children! He is the author of "Setting Yourself on Fire", and  Leading Your Wife: A Man's Guide to Becoming The Patriarch.” He is also the CEO of Rugged Legacy Grooming Company and the host of the Rugged Legacy Podcast.

Jeff is dedicated to the belief that we should be proud to be men and never ignore our responsibility to protect and provide for the ones we love.

During our conversation, among other things, Jeff and I discuss the role that manliness and masculine virtue and actions play in us being effective fathers and how we have innate drives that if not fulfilled and directed in a positive direction lead to all kinds of negative behaviours and problems if they are left untended and discouraged.

Jeff also shares about how this applies to how we raise boys and teaching them how to set their own standards by which to live by.

We also discuss how parents are tending towards helping their children avoid failure when really learning to fail and get back up again stronger and more resilient is in fact one of the greatest lessons we can teach them.

I thoroughly enjoyed the conversation and Jeff’s unique perspective. He also shares a discount code for 20 % off any product from Rugged Legacy Grooming towards the end of the show. Enjoy!
