Reflecting on Family: Gabriel’s Solo ProActivator Journey

ProActivators Podcast

Gabriel, the Pro Activator, hosts his first solo episode, diving into the family pillar of the Pro Activators framework. He shares pride in raising disciplined, fit kids and the power of modeling true values.

Welcome to the first solo episode of the ProActivators Podcast! I’m Gabriel, the ProActivator host, and today it’s just me, no guests, as I reflect on a deep question every ProActivator should ask: What are you truly proud of? For me, it’s the family pillar—one of the six pillars (faith, fitness, finances, family, focus, fulfillment)—where I’ve shown up consistently.

Key Highlights:

• Family Pride: I’m proud of developing my sons, Enzo (15) and Liam (almost 13), with love, discipline, and patience. Since ages 8–10, they’ve learned real-life skills—laundry (50%), cooking breakfast/lunch, folding clothes, making beds (not 100%), and keeping rooms organized (not 100%). Progress, not perfection, is the goal.
• Fitness Commitment: My boys join me at the gym, waking at 4:30 AM weekdays. For four years, Enzo has trained five days weekly; Liam, nearly three years, will hit three in August. We’ve added CrossFit this summer—they’re excelling!
• Healthy Habits: They avoid sugary snacks (70–80%), practice self-control with eating (unlike my past struggles), brush teeth (100%), shower (95%), and handle dishes (90%) with minimal prompting. They’re nearly autonomous.
• Spiritual Growth: They pray before meals, thank God, and call us out if we forget. They study for tests (not 100%) and prep for church Sundays, showing respect and initiative.
• Modeling Values: I emphasize living authentically. Learning is caught, not just taught. I model transparency—nothing to hide from my wife or kids. This builds trust (150%) and freedom, boosting confidence when no one’s watching.
• Thought of the Day: Be real, especially alone. When you have nothing to hide, you live free. Try it—my wife and I thrive this way.

Advice: Reflect on your pride, model values you live, and commit to family progress. Start small with kids’ responsibilities or fitness, and stay consistent.
