Welcome to The Jonnie Jensen Show, the podcast for business-owning and career minded dads who want to create success at home and work so they can feel like the man and dad they want to be.
Modern Dads often put themselves last, thinking if they can just be enough for everyone else then it will make them happy and successful. But you can't pour from an empty cup.
When you are more for yourself first - mentally, physically, emotionally strong - then you can be more for others. It does not work the other way around.
Instead of going it alone you need a system, structure and accountability. With the High Value Man System For Living you get a proven process along with the friendship and support from other like minded men.
Jonnie is a divorced business owning dad, thriving in this chapter of life. He is also the founder and Head Coach at the High Value Man Project.

Whether it’s ending the stress, transforming your relationship or reconnecting with your kids and friends, the High Value Man Project enables you to take control in your life and lead with clarity, courage and commitment.
This is not alpha hustle or back breaking regimes. This is about being the man and dad you want to be - and loving life as you do it.
Tune into Jonnie and his guest experts for honest advice and real stories that'll have you nodding along and cracking up.
No more second best. It is time to live the life you want, not one you feel stuck in.

In this episode, Jonnie breaks down one of the hardest realities for single dads at Christmas – the pressure, the emotion, the logistics and the loneliness – and shows how you can turn it into something genuinely magical instead of miserable.
Through lived stories, raw experiences and real-world examples from divorcing dads, co-parenting dads and dads navigating their first year alone, Jonnie unpacks the seven truths that shift Christmas from painful to powerful.
This one is a grounded reminder that Christmas isn’t defined by a date, an ex, or a court order – it’s defined by you. Your mindset. Your leadership.
Your willingness to create joy even in a tough season.
It’s about owning your chapter, not collapsing under it.
Christmas amplifies everything – the stress, the pressure, the loneliness, the money worries, the feeling of missing your kids.
Most men either:
Both create the same internal cost – sadness, shame, frustration, and that painful feeling of being on the outside looking in.
Jonnie breaks down why the emotional mind takes over, why the 25th isn’t the day to die on, why splitting Christmas Day is often a trap, and how you can reclaim the magic for yourself and for your kids – even if you don’t see them on the official day.
When you take the High Value route – leadership, clarity, responsibility – something shifts. Life gets lighter. Christmas becomes something you create, not something you suffer through.
And your kids remember the experience, not the date or the price tag.
“Christmas doesn’t define your future. But how you lead yourself through this one can.”
This episode is a direct reminder that you still get to build joy, connection and meaning – even in a hard year.
