Truly a Masterpiece Podcast
Truly a Masterpiece podcast is based on the Scripture that teaches, you are God's unique work of art, his masterpiece. This podcast is for those who are tired of wasting their potential and putting their dreams on hold while they struggle with the paralysis of self-doubt. My name is Craig, I'm your host. In 2014 I won the war over self-doubt. Looking back I can't believe how easy the war was to win. In each episode, you'll meet others who have won the war over self-doubt. They will share the dark side of doubt and how they overcame that "not enough" feeling to live the life they were born to love.

From Frustration to Connection: What Dads Need to Know About Emotional Safety | Episode 041
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
How do fathers move from frustration to real connection with their teenagers?
In this 24-minute conversation, I sit down with Dan Hayden, founder of Find Your Azimuth Christian Coaching. Dan helps fathers of teens move from tension and disconnection toward deeper relationships built on trust and understanding.
Together, we talk about one of the most important — and often misunderstood — elements of parenting teens: emotional safety.
In this honest and practical interview, we discuss:
• What emotional safety actually is (and what it isn’t)
• How dads can intentionally build it in everyday moments
• The biggest hurdles fathers must overcome to create connection
• Why leadership principles matter inside the home
• The deeper motivation behind our work — serving our families well
Dan also shares a powerful personal story that illustrates the reward of creating emotional safety, along with encouragement that any dad can learn to do this. He provides helpful resources fathers can use right away and explains how you can connect with him online.
If you’re a dad who wants influence instead of frustration and connection instead of distance, this conversation is for you.
