Friday already!

👀 Something new is brewing...

We’re launching The Dad Lab (working title); live, no-fluff sessions (hosted on Google Meet) with entrepreneurs, fitness pros, and experts across the board. Just quick, actionable insights followed by real Q&As. First one’s coming soon. Stay tuned.

Have a great weekend.

“A father’s job isn’t to teach his children how to be adults—it’s to show them how to be good people.”

FROM THE TRENCHES

One of the best things about the Dad Day Slack group is when a post just hits—like this one shared earlier this week:

Seven currents running through the heart of a child…

Can I trust you? Are you good?
Am I safe? Will you hurt me, or protect me?
What is my worth? I am, or I do?
Behave or be me?
Do you enjoy me? Or am I a burden?
Are you choosing me? Or are you stuck with me?
Are you still there? Or have you left me?

That’s a gut check. Fatherhood isn’t just about providing—it’s about presence. The way we respond in the little moments answers these questions for our kids, whether we realize it or not.
