Episode notes

Larry Coolian: I think when you grow up without a father or you grew up with some trauma in your life, whatever the source of trauma is, you have one of two paths you can take. You could either replicate the pattern of being an absent father, a deadbeat father, or you could say, I'm going to do something about it. And he went down that path. He says his dad edge started probably with his childhood. "The monster that I always swore to protect myself, to protect my son against was the person that I became"

Today’s guest Larry Hagner joins us, stepping aside from being an amazing father, his purpose and mission in helping fathers and aspiring fathers for an incredible episode! Larry sheds a light on his past, accidentally meeting his biological father, the night he broke a promise, that led him to the creation of The Dad Edge mission, and highlights some of his touch points over the nearly 1,000 episodes including names like Matthew McConaughey, Andy Frisella and Frankie Edgar.
