The Real Dad Podcast

Just two episodes ago we talked about finding our "happy", but when life feels really hard, whether that's in our personal lives or beyond, finding happy isn't even on our radar. We can get caught up in all of the difficulties and it can feel like the only way to find bliss IS in ignorance or denial of our reality.

One place I KNOW you can find your "happy" is on vacation. And always remember, "You can't get pregnant at sea"

Fear reveals itself in many ways. Things like anxiety, stress, doubt, and worry can all stem from our fear.

Dave opens up about how his fear has impacted his life recently.

If you’re a parent, you know the feeling. Kids are away for the night, or a couple hours, you look at your partner and say, “Hey, wanna get dinner?” and then you just… get dinner! Without a second thought? As much as we love our kids, there’s a certain type of freedom you enjoy when you get to do the every day type of stuff with a little less responsibility.
