Many of us focus on winning at work. Whether it is from our own fear or the expectations of others, we put pressure on ourselves to succeed. Then, with whatever time and energy is left, we give to our family and to ourselves. In the end, no one wins. Marriages suffer, kids are neglected, teams are not developed, and you are not fulfilled. There is a better way. You, your home, and your work can thrive. This book will help you discover how to: • Craft a personal and family vision • Achieve work/rest balance • Have a close marriage of fun and intimacy • Build into your kids to set them up for success in life • Prioritize for even greater impact at work • Equip and empower your employees Succeeding at work doesn’t mean you have to fail at home. You can do both. Here’s how. "I'm thankful for Win at Home First . The pathway to truly winning in life is exactly opposite of the way we've all been taught, and I'm thankful for the reminder.

Practical. Encouraging and enlightening. Win at Home First brought clarity of thought and vision to a struggle I seem to encounter often: life balance. Often we calibrate our life to work versus home and yet home is the key to success at work. This is a great book that calibrates the right work-life balance for success in both areas of life. A must read." - Chris Hartenstein , CEO of Hartco, Inc., and founder of The New Frontier I worked in 'corporate America' for 20 years - had a great time, had some amazing opportunities, but also saw and experienced brokenness...people exhausted, marriages impacted, parents not around their kids. I was working for 'the man' and not feeling like I was making an impact. Five years ago, I hired an executive coach and it changed my life. The process transformed me into a better husband, father, and leader.  In the spring of 2016, I felt a nudge from God to dive into coaching full-time. Now, I am on a mission to share my experience and help others live life to the fullest...and it is working!  My hope and prayer is that my testimony and content I have learned along the way can help you on your journey.   Thanks for letting me be a part of your story.
