Real Unfiltered Dad Journeys Steve-sharing journeys of dads.

I have known Steve for over 16 years and in this episode he shares some really personal experiences. We discuss a very wide range of issues related to being dad which encompasses how he exposes his kids to as much as he can…. One word - bees! We both discuss how to broach the topic of sex education with our kids and how to engage with them about the changes they experience, after all we both never had that talk from our dads. We both get emotional after talking about if we do get emotional enough and he shares the darkest point in his life- losing his wife while fighting cancer. This is a real and honest conversation and I am so honored as I always am to be able to share his story. Thank you Steve and you are more than enough in my eyes.

This episode I go down-under and talk Rod, who is originally from Brazil, but now lives happily in Australia with his family of 3 including his wife. We have known each other for over 20 years and we reconnected recently, he was keen to share his dad journey. Throughout this episode Rod talks openly regarding his dad journey through the good, the bad and the ugly. As with all these conservations I have over 10 questions which I randomly pull out, and each dad has a go at being as honest and real as he can be answering them. Rod doesn’t shy away from this and so I hope you will get comfortable because this is Rod on Real Unfiltered Dad Journeys. All the music on the show it’s made by Joshua my youngest son, how proud I am to use his music on my show.

It’s been a few months since I put out an episode because I have not been in a headspace which I think warrants one. Tonight I decided to have a bash and see what came out… it’s just me

Stuart is a father to 3 kids, 2 are identical twins and the 3rd is the eldest, all are girls. I have know Stuart for about 20 years and what he shares here is just amazing. He talks about his journey of becoming dad and how his own dad modeled so much for him. He lost his dad before he became one himself but he has, and still is doing his best. He is also a great storyteller and a book of knowledge which I was always envious of. Join me dive into Stuarts unfiltered dad journey which began in his mid 30’s and sit back and relax.

This is Travis Dales and he shares his dad journey for the first time on a podcast, my podcast! He became a stepdad in 2009 to his wife’s son and found slipping into those stepdad shoes easier than some by becoming his friend first. He and Damen are like best friends and tells me how special it is and how that looks. Three years ago things got really interesting. Jennifer (his amazing wife) had their first biological child together named Riley. It was a surprise, however it was a blessed one. Riley was born with downsyndrome (trisomy 21) and that brought a few medical complications. Those were a challenge for Travis mentally and he opens up sharing his real unfiltered experiences about how he realized he needed help. This is a beautiful and real chat and I hope you enjoy listening as much as I did. Thank you to Travis for your time and let’s keep the conversations going.

It’s been a journey for me AGAIN since august and here is the goss. I can do this, and I’m feeling like things are different.
