00:00 Welcome to the Friday Catch Up. This is Johnny Jensen. You're with Team Super Dad and we're catching up our week. Roll theme. Welcome to Team Super Dad. Real dads creating their best lives ever. More time, more money, more fun. You are not alone. You're on Team Super Dad. Hey, welcome to the Team Super Dad Friday Hangout. My name's Johnny Jensen. We're on StreamYard, which is the first time I've moved over from Restream. And my phone and loads of just, if you were watching this week, we were doing the habit challenge.

00:40 You would have seen the stream stop about three times. And so that pushed me over the edge, basically. That pushed me over the edge as far as making the jump to StreamYard. Lots of people I know are on StreamYard. Daniel Latto and Nick James. Gary Vee is on Restream, which he certainly was for a while, but they evolved pretty quick. So anyway, I'm pretty happy to be moving over to StreamYard. If you're interested in streaming to multiple channels, then it's a great tool. Welcome. It's Friday afternoon. We do this little update on a Friday.

01:22 Why? Because it's the end of the week. And as well as having a little check-in on myself, have I done anything this week? Have I got anything to share? It's also a great way for, you know, people who are working on their own, maybe even leading a business can be quite lonely. Whatever you're up to, then Friday is a great way to check in and see how things are going. It's 20 past four here in the UK. I normally do this at lunchtime. So we're definitely late. If you want to comment, then please do. Just say hi in the comments. And if with any luck, I will see the comments come in here and I'll be able to reply to everybody from either Facebook or YouTube or Twitter via

02:11 Periscope. So test it out. If you're watching, say hello. I can see someone's watching. So just ping me a message. Let's see what it says, basically. I'm going to open up. I'm going to open up Facebook anyway and see what's going on. See if I can see myself. It's always a little bit interesting. There we go. I can see myself. Ta-da! Looking great, obviously. So Team Super Dad is my community and system to equip dads to have their best life ever, to be the dads their family needs them to be, whether you are in a relationship or single. Oh, what was that? That was a big bang downstairs. Whether you're in a relationship or single,

02:55 your kids need you and you need to have a great time as well. It's all about having our best life ever. And this week, we've done loads of stuff with Team Super Dad. And I've also done loads of stuff with my kids. We're entering a new stage of lockdown here in the UK. And it's just, it's ever-changing, isn't it? It's ever, ever-changing. And as we find ourselves with increased freedoms again, different attitudes. I think they're telling me the front door. Oh, someone in the front door. And that's the live nature of being at home with your kids as well. There's always stuff going on. I'll guarantee in about 30 seconds, they'll be fighting.

03:38 Absolutely. So Rose is doing her dance lesson and Jago was playing football. So they're now indoors. So Team Super Dad, what's been happening? First of all, Team Super Dad, I launched the 28-day challenge, which is a habit challenge. Do you know, habits is a... To some people, habits, obviously good, you know, fitness, juicing, going to bed at the right time, date nights with your wife, working out, having a sensible bedtime, making time for your kids, cooking. Like there's so many good habits. As I've set about this challenge, I've had to make a list of all the good habits, acts of kindness, breathing.

04:19 Like there's so many things. Not just breathing, like walking along breathing, but there's breathing exercises that can be done, which on a day-to-day basis, meditating. You know, that's a habit. These are all positive habits. And equally, negative habits, there are thousands. I was on a website as I was prepping for this and he had 283 bad habits. I'm not sure all of them were bad habits and I'm not sure they were all unique. But nonetheless, you know, in any walk of life, we can find good and bad habits, biting our fingernails, smoking, picking our nose, going to bed at the wrong time, porn, gambling. gambling,

05:01 driving too fast. Like, there's so many habits, drinking too much coffee. I did, day two was yesterday. We did, um, we did caffeine as one of the bad habits. Just go and see what's going on over here in the Team Super Dad group. Team Super Dad Success Group. Come on, there we go. Team Super Dad community. So, yeah, so where, and, you know, there's plenty of fitness challenges around. And inside of Team Super Dad, there is a, you know, just an ongoing get sweaty challenge. You know, my, my challenge is on a day-to-day basis, every day, get sweaty. And, you know, I had, I had fitness has always been a challenge and always been a goal around Team Super Dad.

05:44 And, you know, something that I do in my life as much as possible. I can't say I get it done every day. And there are times when it's, you know, it's much easier. And there's times when it's much harder. And it's about tuning into what the value is of that habit and actually being able to, when the days that you don't want to do it, that's your access to getting it done. That's your access to stopping smoking. You know, if it's, if, if it's, if it's your kids, if it's about being able to grow old and have fun with your kids still, then that can be a motivation for giving up smoking. Maybe it's money and buying a car or whatever, but you've got to have an anchor to drive you towards either giving up a bad habit or adopting a good habit.

06:27 So that's why we focused on habits for this 28-day challenge in July. The good thing about it being a habit challenge is you can drop in at any time. And it doesn't mean you can drop out at any time. I want you in and we'll do this all together. So go on over to teamsuperdad.com forward slash habit challenge. That's teamsuperdad.com forward slash habit challenge. And you can register inside of there and then you'll make sure that you're part of the invites and the Zoom calls and WhatsApp group and all the things that are going on around that. Get involved. And I posted today in the group and on my personal page, like what are your good and bad habits?

07:04 I'd love to know what you think a good and bad habit is. I've no doubt that there will be some people out there who smoke and think that that's a good habit. Why? Because they simply love it. And that's okay. You know, this is not a judgy thing. Certainly we're here to inspire and support and educate, but we're not here to preach. We're not here to tell you that you're bad or wrong. So get on board, get on board. Other things that have been going on, oh my gosh, website challenges, printer challenges. For anyone who's used to working in WordPress, just the themes, they should be easy, right? They should be easy to manage, especially when you've paid extra money for support and they email back after three days and say, oh, you need to update the theme.

07:45 And I'm like, that's where this started with me updating the theme. It is up to date, you know, just blah, blah, blah. So I am pretty technically capable, tech-minded. You know, I've worked in digital marketing for 20 years. I should be able to do basic things on a WordPress site. I should be able to make graphics and use Audacity and Adobe Premiere. Like there's a lot of things I can do, but there is a limit as well. And also about time, you know, what is your time worth? How much time, if two hours, what can you do with two hours? What can you do with three hours? And how much could you charge? How much could you earn during that same time?

08:24 So this is where it comes down to outsourcing things out. You know, even at home, having a cleaner, ironing, you know, these are all things that when you measure up how much time they take, obviously you need the cash flow to be able to actually pay for them. But when you look at the time it takes and you look at the time that you, what you could, else you could do with that time, this can be a way to actually make time in your lives. And if it comes back to money, as it does for all of us, then don't let that be a burden. Like we're talking about habits before, let that be something that drives you forward. We've all got to find new ways to increase our income, especially in the world today. Is it a second income? Is it improving your work and career? Is it improving your business?

09:07 We've just got, we've got to be conscious about the money that we need to actually create the lifestyle that we want. And being able to outsource some of those things, be able to pay for support means that we can not only get that help, but we can also do work that we love. I do not like editing and fixing WordPress sites. I'm not that good at it. And that's because I don't spend much time doing it. So why should I struggle away with it? So the £30 I spent with the lady in India was very good money spent. And we've built up an instant rapport there. The $58 I spent with the theme creator, I'm less happy about.

09:48 But that's another story. The bastards. And so, yeah, so we're up to stuff. uh the f5 and the that program just you know evolving it still bringing on board the coaches that i want and really being bold about that really being bold about what i want it to be and the level to which it was it is providing support for dads to create that life that they want to create the the personal power to achieve their ambitions and fulfill their potential you know it would be very easy to have it be just another video course and some information that you may or may not read but what if it was like a full master mind group of dads who are up to stuff

10:34 lifestyle support from amazing people i'm just in the process of of discussing a um like a biomarker test so really at the start of it if you've ever watched uh oh come on fattest person in america like biggest loser usa biggest loser usa if you ever we love that program we used to watch it all the time but you know one of the things they do right up front in that show is take a do a health test i've recently um been looking at my testosterone levels and my energy levels and so that that biomarker test is a real important part of the fitness element of the f5 so these kind of things we're baking in and i'm having to do my my due diligence and get the right people on board

11:22 i think that's about it on team superdad that the podcast is going well a new episode coming out tomorrow assuming i can finish editing it and what i've got to do there is get better at lining up the guests get better at i've done the research i've got so many different people i want to have on researching through amazon researching through you know existing podcasts and getting those people lined up so if you've if you've heard a great guest on another podcast please share it with me um make an introduction send me there send me the link to that podcast episode and i'll look to see if i can get them on the team superdad podcast if you are interested in well don't say if you're interested you should be listening to the team super dad podcast so go over to teamsuperdad.com forward slash podcast

12:50 know that's been going on for the last it's like an exam for um 11 year olds in the uk to see if they can access grammar schools it only happens in certain parts of the country i went to a grammar school as a kid i definitely think it was worth it and um and i'd love him to have that choice really i'm not going to choose what school he goes to i will suggest which ones i like um but i don't think any parent will get a happy gets thanked by their kids for forcing them to go to a school they didn't want to go to so especially in a co-parenting situation and curiously i'm not going to go into it too much detail but if you've not seen the update around single parent co-parent solo parent i'm

13:29 fully on board with the terminology or the phraseology solo parent and co-parent now i was looking for an answer to that and someone pointed that out to me i'm so against the the expression single parent so they're just two separate separate subjects i am single i have been for five bloody years and um perfect timing one of my uh fabulous former partners ever not just messaged me on on on facebook um if i've completely lost track five years relationships oh yeah so um yeah if you're single you're single and if you're a parent you're a parent then they're not they don't they don't exist together but if in in your parenting relationship you're either you're co-parenting in which you know you could be in a relationship together you or you could you probably just talk about yourself as parents in a in a in a

14:24 solid relationship but if you are separated then you're co-parenting or you're solo parenting i think it's just a much it is semantic slightly but it is just a much more powerful way of describing these things and not like a flipping martyr or a stigma um my fitness blimey taking a bit of a kick in the old uh knackers i was doing the i've been working so then you see them going around facebook uh of course the 25 day press up challenge is has been going back around during lockdown 25 is is no problem for me i've been doing that for a long time but i've all i have never got up to doing 50 in one go so that's been my that's been my goal and i got up to 40 and then last thursday i think it was i was i was doing doing the the up to

15:12 about 40 doing the last 10 on my knees and my left shoulder just kind of made this clicking noise within two hours i was completely locked up like c3po and i haven't tried for about a week because all the osteopaths are closed like everyone's on lockdown right so i can't fix it i'm necking ibuprofen hot baths i'm walking around like c3po and then i i end up calling the osteopath clinic and they said they're not open till the 13th so then i called a mate of mine who actually teaches there and he doesn't he doesn't practice around here and i was hoping he was going to say he could help me and he did he absolutely did so thank you chris uh full respect and i can move my shoulder now i can't i haven't got much movement to the left but we're doing okay

15:59 to the right so so that's the kids that's my back and neck that is what else oh the single co-parent thing yeah um still yet to i've been on i haven't deleted the dating apps i uh i i perhaps i'm just still playing with that whole strategy getting a getting any matches would be would be good um getting ones that i was attracted to might be even better um i think more than anything i would just like to have some female friends that that's that's that's the that's the target is to have is to have some fun with some awesome women i don't mean like naked fun although that is always uh desirable but what i mean is just some mates just some female mates
