He challenges men to view Fatherhood in a whole new way by “Bringing every Dad Home.” This challenge moves beyond the deployment of soldiers back to their physical homes and families. Rather, Ben encourages all men to find a home inside themselves. By accessing a calm place within their own hearts so that they can help themselves, men can then help their families and their communities move through experiences of chaos.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>The goal:</strong> To share Ben’s story of chaos being a man, a father, a husband and a Marine. Ben also shares how he was able to develop tools and strategies to help himself and many other men access a calm place within their own hearts so that they can help themselves, their families and their communities move through experiences of chaos.</p> <p> </p> <ol> <li>Introduction to Ben</li> </ol> <p> </p> <ol> <li style="list-style: none; display: inline"> <ol> <li>Who are you now?</li> <li>Share your story of how you got to where you are now</li> </ol> </li> <li>An overview of Chaos: “A state of disorganization, confusion, resulting from anything in our environment that throws us off balance, overwhelms or confuses us. <ol> <li>Stereotypes (males, Dads, husbands, Military, leaders)</li> <li>What do men do when chaos comes?
