Baker and J. Fotsch welcome longtime friend and original Good Dads board member Paul Windisch. Together, they reflect on the organization's 10-year evolution from a vision to a community-wide movement supporting fatherhood. Paul shares how being part of the early days\u2014and watching the mission grow\u2014shaped his perspective as a father and community member. The conversation highlights the importance of starting where you are, engaging dads from all walks of life, and seeking out \u201cspark plugs\u201d\u2014people who carry the vision forward. Whether you're building a new initiative or rethinking community involvement, this episode is a guide to aligning personal identity, passion, and purpose in ways that make lasting impact.   Episode Highlights [02:11] &quot;We decided on the logo. We decided on the name. It was amazing. But I could not have envisioned ten years down the road at doing what it's doing.&quot; [05:51] &quot;Sometimes we live inside our own little circles and don't really think about the things that affect others. That opened my eyes.&quot; [10:58] &quot;That\u2019s kind of the vision of Good Dads\u2014just to pause. Because our kids are always watching.&quot; [13:35] &quot;I was talking with dads and learning how I could slow down. It was convicting, honestly.&quot; [15:20] &quot;We need all kinds of voices\u2014media people, finance, construction. Everyone brings a unique way to connect with dads.&quot; [25:44] &quot;It\u2019s not about checking boxes. It\u2019s about passion. It\u2019s the heart that moves the needle.&quot;   \ud83d\udce9&amp;nbsp;Sign up&amp;nbsp;for the&amp;nbsp;Good Dads Newsletter&amp;nbsp;and never miss a podcast! \ud83c\udf10&amp;nbsp;Learn more&amp;nbsp;about&amp;nbsp;Good Dads Great Communities! \ud83d\udce7&amp;nbsp;Questions or comments?
