In this episode, I am chatting with Michael Ray, who is a Solo dad to his daughter Charlie (8 y.o). Michael got Charlie at 49 and was 51 when he became a solo dad while in between being critically ill. What a start to parenthood! Michael shares how he balances life between Charlie, his personal training clients and his public speaking engagements.

In our chat we touch on the following topics:

• Breadwinner and nurturer no longer being two separate and distinct role for men and women
• The importance of trauma to help us realise we need to prioritise our kids
• Protecting your kids' self-esteem
• The new to reduced as working dad workload, enabled by being our own boss
• Time blocking for your kids
• Think about how you want to be remembered
• Charlie's day
