In this episode, I write a personal letter to my kids about the quiet power of grace and courtesy—the small acts of kindness and respect that often go unnoticed but shape who we are and who our children become. It’s not about perfect manners or rote phrases; it’s about embodying kindness through how we move, speak, and show up every day, especially when it’s hard.
Drawing from Montessori philosophy, we explore how children learn far more from the soft example we set than from any words or instructions. I share moments of real-life reflection—when I forget to say thank you or interrupt, and how those moments become lessons for all of us in presence, humility, and respect.
This episode invites you to join me in embracing the beautiful, imperfect journey of living grace and courtesy—not just teaching it, but truly being it—for our children and ourselves.
What you’ll hear:
* A heartfelt journal entry written directly to my kids
* Montessori insights on grace and courtesy as foundational life skills
* The importance of modeling kindness through everyday actions
* Gentle guidance on cultivating respect and softness at home
* A listener prompt to practice small acts of grace in your own family life
Pull up a seat, and let’s explore how softness in fatherhood creates strength for our children—and for ourselves.
