About this listen
In today’s episode, Travis and Robert dive deep into something every dad can relate to — the never-ending to-do list and the mental load that comes with it.
Robert shares his secret to staying on top of it all, from daily routines to the habits that make or break productivity. He talks about what actually makes the list, what doesn’t, and how saying no can sometimes be the most powerful tool. You’ll also hear how he keeps his spouse in the loop so both parents stay aligned on priorities and scheduling.
Travis jumps in with his “rocks and sand” analogy for prioritizing life’s biggest tasks — and opens up about what it looks like to tackle the list as a recovering lazy person. Together, they talk about finding balance, building systems that work, and lowering stress at home by getting organized (without losing your mind).
