John 10: 10 "...The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life, and have it in all its fullness. ." Fully Engaged and Fully Alive is a podcast to help others win in life. My focus is to help others overcome obstacles in order to run and win their particular race in life. We will discuss all matters that pertain to life; no topic is taboo. The show is hosted by Jackson Drumgoole. In 2013 Jackson was awarded the Father of the Year alongside President Bill Clinton and former Macy’s CEO Terry J. Lundgren by the National Father’s Day Committee. The committee confers the honor on contemporary lifestyle leaders of our culture whose lives are dedicated to family, citizenship, charity, civility, responsibility, and reverence. Specifically, Jackson was selected based on his work with military fathers during his multiple deployments to Iraq. However, it was the community response to his first book, They Call Me Daddy: A Diary of Dysfunctional Father, that launched Jackson as the CEO (Chief Encouragement Officer) to other fathers. In this book Jackson revealed, in full disclosure, his failures as a father of five (including natural triplets), and his recovery as a fully-functional dialed-in-dad. Jackson has been a construction worker, song writer, fashion designer, teacher, helicopter mechanic, computer maintenance technician, pizza delivery driver, and advisor to Generals. He is a sought-after speaker throughout the United States and South America as he engages and encourages fathers to live “Fully Engaged and Fully Alive” in the lives of their children through candid and lively discussion. Jackson has been featured on radio and in magazines sharing practical tools to equip fathers from all walks of life from prisons to professionals. Jackson is a 25-plus year Army veteran and university professor. You can always find Jackson and his wife, Shdonna, somewhere raising their “5 Arrows” with intentionality and purpose.
