Tony was awesome! He gave some great info and lessons on relationship in general. We have to be able to communicate and lead. Don't just react with your anger and emotions. This is part of being a whole man. Competency in leading a wife , girlfriend, family, kids, etc. Here's the recording and some notes I took about the acronym SEAT. SEAT is the 4 letters representing the 4 archetypes of wives and girlfriends. Snappy, emotional, anxious, tuned out, and how to fill the need of each one. Enjoy!
