In order to connect, in order to influence our kids, in order to truly help to raise them into the humans that they were born to be, this is one of the most effective strategies I’ve ever come across and the results speak for themselves.”

Speaker Reel
David Bach, 11-time National Best Selling Author, and Speaker says:
“Jim’s teaching and the principles of Family Board Meetings concept exceeded anything I could have hoped for in my wildest imagination.
I’m already super close to my son, probably like you’re already super close to your kids. But this gave Jack and me the opportunity to bond in a way we’ve never bonded before. I feel closer to him; you can’t put a price tag on that.”
