How Dads Tell Conscious Stories

What are the most important 20 minutes of each day with your kids?

How can we as Dads use the power of stories to positively influence, educate and inspire?

In this interview, we’re talking about storytelling and the power it has to connect and move young hearts and minds.

My guest is the author and creator of conscious stories, a series of books that my boys, Tiger and Ocean, absolutely love.

Honestly, I’m not a fan of many kids books. I ask myself, “what’s the point of this story?”

I have a special book shelf in my boys’ room filled with books I’ve personally chosen, because they teach something of value.

Hey, I’m all for being entertained, which certainly has value, and yet the real gold is when my kids are being entertained and learning at the same time.

For years, I was the dad who just picked up whatever book was close by, or whichever one I could get through the fastest (being honest here), but today I’m much more careful about the stories I’m reading, because I’m much more intentional about the young men I’m hoping to empower.

The words we read in the last 20 minutes of the day, become the seeds of consciousness and subconscious behaviors, many of which will be carried into our adult lives.

So to explore this topic of storytelling, I invited one of my favorite authors onto the show this week, Andrew Newman, Founder of The Conscious Bedtime Story Club.
