Carl is an extreme kayaker and nurse now raising two young boys in the Kootenay Rockies of British Columbia. In this fun conversation Carl talks about adjusting to life as a parent turning his back on the sport he loves and finding new interests as he rekindles his passion for music. We talk about the importance of remembering who you are and the significance of the so called 'man cave'...We share stories and discuss safety and risk in raising kids, the reality of the 'tiny home', training your kids to be ready for an emergency and the joy of berry picking. Carl has some words of wisdom to share and I discuss the man cave and dealing with risk as a parent with my favourite psychologist, husband and father of two, Todd Kettner Ph.D.
