Reena loves a story, and she‘s fascinated by the people behind them. She loves to bring stories to life. Her appetite for storytelling has taken her from the Jerry Springer Show to the legal drama of the courtroom. From influential players to reality stars, nothing is censored here. Reena interviews people whose stories haven‘t been told, at least not through her unique lens, and then gets daddy‘s advice afterward like a good daughter does. Whether you have daddy issues or a father who‘s inspired your path, you will be able to tap into my daddy‘s wisdom, wit, and humor at the end of every episode. My daddy has been a guiding light my whole life and there‘s not much he doesn‘t know, as an entrepreneur for forty-plus years, a husband, a loyal son, and my number one supporter. He has learned lots of life lessons along the way and is here to share them with you. It‘s time to reminisce and reflect on the conversations you‘d like to have with your daddy and learn from mine. Come share in some good old-fashioned family bonding and help us up our wisdom rating. There is wisdom from four generations and I’m addressing what happens from childhood to adulthood!

What would your life be like if you took an adult gap year? Are there things you’d like to say no to? How can you be the best father and bring yourself joy?
“Where do I find my self-worth?” A common question asked when meeting someone new is, “What do you do?” For decades workers were able to find their answer and self-worth in how and to whom they sold their labor. However, it seems that through the Great Resignation, the mindset of finding one's self-worth through a job is going the way of the typewriter or the fax machine in the office.
Data is showing that the Great Resignation is less about money and more about lifestyle choices and asking for respect by workers. 57% of those surveyed in a February 2022 Pew Research Center poll cited they “felt disrespected at work” for the reasoning behind their resignation. In addition, a MIT Sloan Management Review article that analyzed one million Glassdoor reviews stated that “Toxic Culture” - in particular feeling disrespected in the workplace - was “ten times more important than compensation in predicting turnover.”
Like many others, Roger has found that intentionally living out his life through the completion of items on my bucket list brings him the self-worth he was seeking that a job no longer fulfills. Here are three benefits (plus two bonus benefits) to self-worth that one can find through crossing items off a bucket list:
-
You decide what brings you joy
-
You feel pride through accomplishments you chose
-
You build confidence having your own stories to share
Bonus Benefits
-
You become motivated and excited about life
-
You get outside of your bubble
Roger is a member of the Great Resignation. In October of 2021, after a heart attack and thirty plus years in the youth development/teaching field, he quit his position to take an “Adult Gap Year.” During this time he traveled and lived around the globe, crossing items off his bucket list and encouraged others to do the same. During this time he also started a podcast called The Crossing It Off Podcast, where he interviews individuals living with intention through items they have crossed off their lists that have experienced these benefits as well.
