Episode Synopsis

This one comes from a deep place. I grew up with a father who was present but not fully available. The silence. The distance. The emotional gaps. It shaped me more than I realized. Now, as a father myself, I find myself trying to become something I never had. No blueprint. No example. Just a commitment to break cycles and show up differently. This episode is about the internal battle so many men face, trying to be a present, loving, emotionally available father… without ever seeing what that looks like firsthand. It’s not easy. But it’s necessary. For my kids. For me. And for every man trying to rewrite the story.
