Licensed clinical social worker and parenting coach Braxton Storm shares his powerful journey from growing up in California's foster care system to becoming a father of three (soon to be four) children. In this vulnerable conversation, Braxton explores how his childhood experiences shape his approach to helping parents build calmer, more connected homes, the importance of emotional regulation, and why "messy is normal" when it comes to raising emotionally healthy kids.
On June 17th, I’m hosting a free, live workshop, Become a Better Leader By Becoming a Better Dad, for fathers who are tired of living a divided life. We’ll explore how “Default Dad” shows up when you’re tired, overloaded, or distracted, and how those same patterns affect your leadership at home and at work.
