David Arrell is a coach, consultant, and returning guest! About three years ago David joined us for a conversation about the WTF moments of fatherhood. Since then, his empire of dad advice has grown and he’s back with more helpful tips.

Welcome to Fatherhood (or WTF as it’s appropriately called at times) is his fatherhood brand. What began with a book is now a podcast, blog, and even a course! As a partner, it’s not always easy to know how to show up in the most supportive and helpful way. If only there was a how-to guide. Well thanks to David, there is! 

In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:

• What the “Dude Zone” is and why it’s important
• Which two traps are on the way from the Dude Zone to the Dad Zone
• What it means to “team up” vs “team out”
• Which challenges dads are most worried about
• How often dads deal with postpartum depression
• How partners can be supportive through each trimester
• How to redefine masculinity in the role of fatherhood
