Inhaltsangabe

"Sitting in public reading this, and yet again, you have reduced me to tears through your eloquence and strength to say what most of us ignore. Andy, you are an inspiration." Andrew B

"This is powerful stuff! As someone who struggles similarly to you, I'm very thankful for your openness and transparency. My tool kit looks very similar, and as I age, the dark and scary days are fewer and farther between. Thank you so much." Kim C.

One windy day on a bike ride, training for an Ironman triathlon, Andy Blasquez was blown from his bicycle while traveling at over 40 miles per hour. This accident left him unconscious and alone, out of sight, off the side of the road. But this wasn't his first fall. It wasn't his first concussion.. It was his 15th concussion that was severe enough to result in a loss of consciousness.

As a single father of his two sons, with his memories slipping away, replaced with fear and depression, he had to find a way to capture the very best of his life, his growth, his questions and answers...everything he wanted to share with his sons when they were older. With no time to waste, Andy needed to prioritize his life, putting his boys and his mental, physical, and spiritual health right at the top. He needed to live his best life...and he needed to start immediately.

This lead to modeling this healthy lifestyle for them. Walking and talking with them while we learned together navigate this life with purpose, on purpose, and with a sincere smile. "So if I could help alleviate within them some of the feelings that I wrestled with throughout my childhood, perhaps they'd go on to bigger and better-- and-more importantly-happier times."

Needing guidance to find patience and understanding, strength, confidence, and ultimately peace, he read and processes and re-read writings and teaching from the most revered and inspirational spiritual leaders, mentors, sages, philosophers, and personal development coaches in history. Harvesting insights from contemporaries such as Stephen Covey, Tony Robbins, and Eckhart Tolle to the Buddha and Siddhartha Gautama. From the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. to the teachings of the Christian Bible, the Quran, and the Bhagavad Gita. From the ideas passed down from our most prolific Stoics to the time-tested fables of the Tao Te Ching.

In this book Andy shares his past, his sadness and joy, his failures and journeys, and a sea of wisdom he collected, simplified, and presents in "Hey Guys. It's Dad!" in a way that's as conversational and comforting as it is inspirational and heartwarming..
