    Why Good Dads Still Feel Like They're Failing | Ep. 8

    What if being a great dad isn't about doing more... but giving yourself more grace? This week, the guys sit down with Brian Feltmann—pastor, husband, father of six, and a man who's spent years helping families navigate the highs and lows of parenting. With kids ranging from newborn to teenager, Brian brings a perspective that only years of fatherhood can provide. From hilarious stories about life with six kids to deep conversations about patience, guilt, spiritual leadership, and the pressure dads put on themselves, this episode is packed with practical wisdom and encouragement. Brian shares why your kids probably remember you differently than you remember yourself, how fatherhood has taught him more about the heart of God, and why learning to lose yourself may be the greatest lesson a dad can learn. Whether you're expecting your first child or raising teenagers, this conversation is a reminder that your kids don't need a perfect father—they need one who's present. ⏱️ Timestamps 0:00 – DadCo chaos returns 😂 2:30 – Meet Brian Feltmann 8:00 – Six kids, ministry, and surviving the chaos 18:00 – What every new dad gets wrong 31:00 – Why dads are harder on themselves than their kids are 46:00 – The moments your children will actually remember 1:02:00 – The pressure of raising kids in today's world 1:18:00 – Fatherhood and what it reveals about God 1:20:00 – Patience, grace, and leading your family well 1:22:00 – Advice Brian wishes every new dad could hear 1:24:00 – What six kids have taught him about parenting 1:25:00 – If your kids remembered one thing about you 1:26:00 – What truly makes someone a dad?
