Today on the Dads with Daughters Podcast we bring back Jim Young to talk about his new book, Expansive Intimacy: How "Tough Guys" Defeat Burnout. In our conversation we talk frankly about burnout and what dads can do to combat this and become stronger in the end.

In Expansive Intimacy: How "Tough Guys" Defeat Burnout, Jim Young explores the rules of masculinity that force men into a false choice: either face shame by embracing their inner desires for meaningful connection, or invite burnout by following the harsh rules that require men to shun emotions and emphasize achievement. With both levity and gravity, Jim walks us through his years-long journey through burnout, along with stories and lessons of how other men have boldly escaped burnout by embracing a new way to be tough—through Expansive Intimacy.

Today on the Dads with Daughters Podcast, I talk with Dr. Michael King, author of Dad Spelled Backwards: A Journey Through the Maze of Love, Marriage, and Adoption. Mike had never thought much about getting married and becoming a father, but all that changed when, in his fifties, he met Gabriella, his lovely (and much younger) French wife. Together they decide to try to become parents, and they do all they can to make a baby—to the point where Mike wonders if one can die from too much sex.

This candid account by a husband and father is insightful, moving, fiercely funny—and ultimately a testament to unconditional love. Mike tells his story of how, wanting to make his wife happy after realizing that they couldn't successfully conceive a child, he reluctantly agrees to move on to the next phase of potential parenthood—adoption. Unfortunately, domestic adoption is often a long, costly process that takes couples on a roller-coaster ride from hope to despair and back again. Mike recounts how he and Gabriella were connected with one pregnant woman after another until they were finally given a baby, only to have to give the infant back when the birth mom changed her mind. This left them so emotionally drained that they had to decide whether the price of becoming parents was too high and whether it was time to give up. Such heartbreak might have driven other couples apart, but Gabriella and Mike only became closer; their love for one another grew even stronger, and they did at last get to be parents. "I hope this book inspires people who want to, or are considering whether to, become parents," Mike says. "We all face obstacles in life, but if love prevails, it's worth the struggle." You'll laugh and cry with Gaby and Mike in this heartwarming story of one man's journey into happy marriage and fatherhood. Dr. Mike King, comedian and pediatric dentist, has built his practice in an unusual way: to relax the kids, he incorporates comedy and magic tricks into his treatment. He has written two children's books, Flossopher and the Brushing Trees and Enamel the Camel. Entertaining is in Mike's blood: His dad owned Sid King's Crazy Horse Bar in Denver, Colorado. In the 1970s and '80s, it was one of the most popular burlesque houses West of the Mississippi, so it was just a matter of time before Mike began to perform for grown-ups. In the comedy-club circuit he's known as "The Fifth Dentist"—you know—"Four out of five dentists recommend sugarless gum." Mike appears regularly at Broadway Comedy Club, New York Comedy Club, and Gotham Comedy Club. His musical, The Lap Dance Kid, is in production, and he's also written a one-man show. Mike's greatest joy is spending time with his wife and their daughter. They live in New York City. For more information, visit www.MikeKingWrites.com.
