10/27/24 • 23 min
Confidence can open doors, but cockiness? That can slam them shut. In this episode of Ask Dad, we dive deep into the subtle but important differences between confidence and cockiness. Learn how to exude self-assurance without crossing the line into arrogance, and understand how true confidence can empower relationships, career growth, and personal fulfillment. Whether you’re struggling with self-doubt or trying to keep your ego in check, this episode will offer insights on how to maintain a healthy balance.
We’ll also tackle a listener question about navigating a challenging relationship: What do you do when your partner seems unmotivated to find work, and you feel like your generosity is being taken advantage of? It’s a tough situation, and we’ll offer advice on how to set healthy boundaries while still being supportive.
Also, stay tuned for the end when Will Snow completely misses the last dad joke and delivers a classic snarf for Dawna—who’ may be rolling her eyes, but snarfing back anyway!
The love is real and the man is real - we talk about it all. The good. The bad. The Dad.
