Rob Nimsger: How Dads Can Leave Work at Work and Lead Better at Home

Welcome back to the Fit Fathers Fellowship Podcast—formerly the Ben Barker Fitness Podcast. In this episode, Ben Barker sits down with Rob Nimsger, a husband, father, medical sales leader, and faith-driven dad, to tackle one of the biggest struggles modern fathers face:

How do you leave work at work—and show up fully for your wife and kids?

Rob manages teams across half the country, leads dozens of employees, and still prioritizes being a present husband and intentional father. In this conversation, he breaks down simple, practical systems dads can use to flip the switch from work mode to dad mode—without carrying stress, frustration, or emotional baggage into the home.

In this episode, we cover:

How to separate work life and home life as a busy dad

Why momentum beats motivation in fitness, faith, and fatherhood

Simple habits to help dads be more present at home

Using small “wins” to reset after a stressful workday

Why changing clothes, family walks, and phone boundaries matter

How reading the Bible together strengthens marriage and leadership

Why discipline—not motivation—is the foundation for lasting change

What servant leadership looks like in marriage, parenting, and work

If you’re a dad who wants to lead better, get stronger, grow in faith, and build a healthier family culture—this episode is for you.
