Calling all Growth-Driven Dads
We celebrate who we are and believe we’re good enough but also accept the challenge of personal growth as a way of enhancing our impact on those we love and care for.
Welcome! Growth-Driven Dad is a weekly newsletter designed to empower men to grow and improve as fathers and humans.

We are Growth-Driven Dads.
Who the hell am I? Great question!
I’m Ben Larsen. I’m the founder and publisher of the First Time Father Project and host of the Dad Stories podcast. I’m a growth-driven Dad and I love fireside chats and long walks on the beach.
The First Time Father Project launched in 2013 and it’s always served as a great place for thoughtful takes on fatherhood. With this newsletter, I’m excited to sharpen the focus and reach you where you are — in your inbox.
Thanks so much for being part of this incredible community. I’m honored to be the guy bringing it to you.
