You all asked, and it's finally here. I am often asked for resources for Stepdads and to be honest, had never really found one that resonated until I found today's guest.

Franco Zavala is a coach, speaker, podcast host and stepdad to 5. He is on a mission to build, grow, and maintain a strong community of stepdads who are actively pursuing positive ways to become better leaders, mentors and fathers through his work as The Professional Stepdad.

 

In this episode we dive into:

• His unique story being the stepdad to 5 who lost their biological father at a young age
• What it means to be a leader and mentor in step-fathering
• Why men aren't asking for help or talking about when they screw up
• His biggest downfall as a stepdad
• How hearing "you're not my real dad" changed the trajectory of his parenting journey
• The number one mistake stepdads make
• Why he believes the "Nacho" method is a cowards way out
• How the Love Languages play an important role in his stepfamily life
• The meaning behind "me - us - them" and whether your relationship should come before the kids
• Debunking the stepdad stigma
