Dad Losing Influence? Reclaim It With Science

48 minutes

Most dads don’t need more discipline — they need better regulation.

In this episode, Stacey Chillemi sits down with psychologist and neuroscience expert Josh Davis, PhD, to teach fathers how to manage emotional triggers, build real influence, and break generational cycles — starting today.

If you’ve ever thought, “Why did I react like that?” this episode will help you pause, reset, and respond differently in the moment.

You’ll learn:

🧠 What happens in your brain when you lose control

⏱️ A simple 30-second reset you can use immediately

👑 Why influence works better than authority

🔄 How to stop repeating patterns from your childhood

🗣️ One language shift that changes how your kids respond

These are practical tools you can use tonight — not someday.
