From Sales to Fatherhood: Darren Mitchell's Leadership Journey
Casey Jacox welcomes Darren Mitchell, Australian sales leadership expert and father of two daughters, for a profound conversation about fatherhood, loss, and creating meaningful family connections across continents.
• Darren introduces his two adult daughters—a 25-year-old medical doctor with athletic ambitions and a 21-year-old creative interior designer
• Both men reflect on their upbringings and how parental examples shaped their approaches to leadership and fatherhood
• Discussion of the heartbreaking experience of losing a child, as Darren shares the story of his stillborn daughter Courtney
• Powerful insights about responding to life's challenges by focusing on what we can control rather than dwelling on what we cannot
• The importance of giving children undivided attention and being fully present rather than just providing "quality time"
• Core values that guide effective parenting: love, connection, integrity, work ethic, and acceptance
