Rad Dad Circle Life: Embracing Challenges with Support | 002

Have you wondered what a Rad Dad Circle discussion is like? In this episode we will give you a taste of Circle Life. Engage in a heartfelt discussion about the thrills and challenges of fatherhood as Sean, Matthew, and Braden reflect on their own growth that arose from focusing on love.

Together they engage in an honest dialogue about the ups and downs in their relationships and parenting, the nuances of navigating post-divorce life, and the idea that despite the urge to fantasize about alternate situations, embracing the present moment and seeking support can lead to a more fulfilling experience as a dad. Throughout the episode, they highlight the potential pitfalls of 'checking out' during tough times and falling into addiction, as well as the unique benefits of online support groups.

Highlights

• The struggle of balancing attention and presence as a parent
• Navigating the transition from marriage to divorce as an ongoing relationship with children
• The "grass is always greener" syndrome in the context of relationships and family life
