“Saying the right thing during a coachable moment to your children that builds their self-confidence can be the biggest difference-maker and change the trajectory of their whole life forever.” Michael Caito on DADicated.com

Michael Caito is an amazing dad and serial entrepreneur who co-founded ”Restaurants on the Run”, scaled it to 10 markets, 600 people and $40 million in revenue and sold it in 2015. He served as global chair of Entrepreneurs Organization, is the CEO at MAP Consulting and a member of YPO.

Mike is married, three boys, one with autism. We discuss enabling social skills with kids with autism, how to empower children in principle, how to instill good habits and Mike explains how some of his coaching frameworks can be applied to family. The conversation is valuable and full of practical experience-shares on how to build a successful family and marriage.

The most powerful takeaways for me as a dad were:

Always call out positive behaviour - in real-time - with your kids.
Ask your wife every day how you can make her life better.
Do not sacrifice your relationship for the kids.
The greatest dad-hack: hold out on the mobile phones as long as you can.
Drill the habits that you want to instill early.
