Is Your Man OK?

We all know the challenges of being a mum in 2025 are huge. But how are the dads doing? Do you ever look at a man you love and think “what on earth is going on inside your head?” More and more men are struggling to thrive in today’s hectic world, without saying a word about it - and if our partners are not thriving, then we are not thriving. So what can we do? Today we take a peek behind the male façade, with a vulnerable and at times hilarious conversation with Mamamia’s resident dad Thom Lion. Thom reveals the unspoken pressures and emotional challenges facing the Dads of 2025. Plus, we have practical ways to support the men in your lives, some key signs you can look out for, and tips to help create a healthy and functioning family life.

Fun and funny. I feel like I learn something in most episodes, or at least walk away with something to think about.
A lot of bad advice

I would never leave my kids while in a brand new city (on holiday) with someone they do not know, no matter if they are safe. I suggest not going on vacation if when you get there you feel like getting away from your children.
