January 02, 2025 The Importance of Putting Yourself First (DILF RePlay Series)
One of life’s greatest conundrums is how to avoid losing our own sense of self on this journey we call parenthood?

As parents, each of us, at some point or another, has felt utterly lost. So, how the heck do we get back to a place of joy while keeping up with the laundry list of life's responsibilities?
Maybe the easiest path back is Re-Prioritizing SELF (or possibly, for many, prioritizing yourself for the first time in your life).

In this DILF Replay, DILF host Kevin Seldon shares his personal journey back to the center of his universe – a place EVERY parent deserves to tap into...

This episode launched DILF's 2nd Season, which delves even deeper with a genuine dialogue about the true realities parents face in today’s hectic world — with the goal of eliminating much of the stigma and shame surrounding common mental health issues like anxiety and depression that affect parents around the globe.

Could fewer toys inspire more creativity in our children?

In the DILF Replay, Kevin welcomes fellow dad and constant innovator, Elan Lee (co-creator of Exploding Kittens — one of the most successful kickstarter campaigns of all time) for a candid conversation on everything from the benefits of creating resource limitations for our children and the importance of charting our own path (both in life and parenthood)… to maintaining a sense of balance with all life throws at us while remaining an actively involved parent and partner.

December 05, 2024 When Mom Becomes Dad (DILF RePlay Series)
It’s no secret that the world treats men and women very differently… and the same goes for moms and dads; however, truly comprehending what it’s like for the opposite sex is no easy task.

In this DILF Replay, Kevin welcomes Nick North — a trans man with the rare experience of living life as both dad and mom.

After giving birth to four children, Nick decided that he was tired of living a lie and began his journey transitioning to Dad. His journey is not only fascinating, but also an eye-opening lesson in the realities of gender bias that most of us face on a daily basis. So much more than a trans story, this is Nick North's tale of bravery — an eye-opening interview that proves that the formula for being an amazing parent is simply living your truth while continuing to show up each and every day... with love.
