    Life In The Times Of COVID-19

    It is hard to talk about circumstances surrounding my daughter's birth without mentioning the one thing that seems to have taken over all our lives. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the world forever and I wanted to let Amelia know what life was like in the early months. Special guest Jenin Joseph joins me as we talk about the initial response to the outbreak, adjustments that we've all had to make, unique challenges faced by healthcare providers, impact on mental health and how the pandemic has changed parenting for the foreseeable future.

    In this episode, I get personal and reflect on what holds my life together. To talk through the different facets of faith and its role in our lives, I'm joined by special guest Jake Fleming. We talk about what faith means to us, the difference between religion and faith, differing journeys to find God, advice to future generations and even attempt to answer the age-old question: why does God allow bad things to happen to good people?

    Becoming “Dad”

    To kick off the show, I take a short trip down memory lane to revisit moments starting from the day I found out that I was going to become a father, all the way to the birth of my daughter Amelia.  Along with special guest Aravind Raghavan, I explore our personal attitudes towards fatherhood, reminisce the first moments of our children's birth, discuss the rationale behind our choice of names for our children, discuss the challenge of raising second generation Americans and the invaluable role of our spouses in parenting.
