Why I’m All In to Help Dads Succeed

ByJowi Witt

Hey Reader,

When I was starting out with my first ideas of what to do as a business—
I was looking to help troubled teenagers.
They felt hurt by the system and had a life of trouble.

One idea was to start a farm where they could learn
and feel a healthy routine and environment.
This idea was undoubtedly expensive.

Then I asked myself:
​What would make the issue go away?

When I looked at all the troubled teens,
​many of them had a pattern.

A lot of them had an absent father.
This means either:

  • They were raised by a single mom
  • Or they had a dad at home, but he’s barely there
  • Or they are gone for business
  • Or they have two/three jobs to keep the family afloat.

This observation hit home.

A lot of the trouble teens might not have so many troubles
​if the dad was more present.

There was one more level to it as well:

I want to set myself up so that I could be a Present Dad.

Which meant:
I would need a way to make money to provide
​while also being present for my family.

Having a degree in forestry and agriculture
and a love for scents,
I thought it would be great to start my own business.

The goal of the business would be to help dads be more present at home.

So I designed an outdoor program for more quality time with your kids.

Then another issue entered my recognition:
​More quality time means dads need more time.

That’s why they liked the program but gave it to the moms.

That’s when I realized:

It is not about the kids.
It is about dads having time to be there.

That’s when the vision was born.

Why I’m in:
To become a Present Provider.
For dads to have time to lead their family well.

Keep chopping Wood!

  • Build the bridge, not just the offer

    ByJowi Witt

    You don’t sell a product, you’re not creating an offer or doing a service — you’re helping someone transform their lives. They have a problem or pain, and they wish to make a change. Anything we do is there to help them build a bridge. It is the Bridge of Transformation. So whenever we think of something to do or build, we should first understand the Transformation: Where are they coming from? Where are they going? Then we get a deeper understanding of the different options we can build. In…

  • Why More Leads Might Hurt You

    ByJowi Witt

    I see this all over the internet. People talk about needing more leads, or more new clients. My DMs are full with outreach offering me more leads. The reality is that most think they need more leads, when in reality they don’t have a good enough offer. Focus to help one person better, more and effective. Then you will have something to offer that is power. Take that out into the world and you’ll see:suddenly leads become easier. More leads doesn’t automatically grow your business. When you…

  • You Won’t Have a Harvest Without Sowing

    I see this every day online. People struggling to get a client. Struggling to make money. I have been there before. Aiming to reach a monthly income, ready for the harvest — and then coming up empty. No income. No clients. Just crickets. I thought I had good product. But in reality, I was more focused on what I would get out than what I gave. I didn’t actually sow any seeds. I was preparing for the harvest— only to wonder why it never came. That was a hard lesson. I still remember how…

  • Goal or Journey? Both!

    ByJowi Witt

    Hey Reader, When I was in university, there was a big debate: Whether life was about the goal to achieve or enjoying living the journey. As a success-driven person, I always stated that the goal and the outcome matter most. Now that I hunted success for many years, I’ve noticed another pattern. If you don’t enjoy the process to get the success—success is falling short. You need to have goals because they serve as landmarks to give your journey a direction. That is something I have seen in…

    Gain Agency of your Life When we talk about starting a business, there is often the question of why should you bother. There is so much work that is required to make a business work. Often it is said to have more time and the most often reason is to make more money. But there is one big reason that I’m willing to work more for – and it’s Agency. You can’t become the best leader of your family if you need to ask for somebody else’s permission to act. If you need to take time off for your…
