Max and Matt wrestle with the awkward tension of self-care, gratitude practices, and what it really means to put yourself first as a dad. They dive into the discomfort of talking about feelings, why terms like "self-care" and "gratitude practice" feel off-putting, and whether the resistance to these ideas is generational, cultural, or just straight-up nonsense. From the pressure to be a "good dad" while also keeping a piece of yourself intact to the absurdity of ranking your priorities in life, they explore why taking care of yourself isn’t just important—it’s essential. They also get into dad martyrdom, the social dynamics of making time for friends, and how a simple recurring event on the calendar might just be the key to happiness.
