For many working dads, the challenge isn’t a lack of ambition. It’s the feeling that no matter how hard they work, there’s always another responsibility competing for their time, attention, and energy.

After decades in leadership roles, including serving as a Global VP of Talent and Leadership, Carol Enneking noticed a pattern: many of the most successful people she worked with were also some of the most exhausted.

Carol shares how to:

• Recognize the difference between a demanding season and a misaligned life
• Create margin for the unexpected instead of operating at full capacity
• Think about sequencing goals instead of stacking everything at once
• Build stronger relationships through presence and attention

Carol offers practical wisdom for working dads trying to navigate fatherhood, meaningful work, and the tension between professional ambition and personal priorities.
