wo kids. Fifteen years apart. One dad trying to stay present through all of it.

Dakota Coburn jumps in with both feet, from grinding in brutal New York kitchens to learning how to stay calm when a toddler melts down and a teenager won’t stop talking about the NBA. This one hits work ethic, pressure, discipline, and what actually matters when your kid wants your attention right now, not later.

Real talk on:

• Raising kids at opposite ends of the spectrum
• Handling tantrums without losing your mind
• Teaching discipline without turning into a drill sergeant
• Why “be there when it counts” beats being there all the time

And a reminder that stuck: you’ll spend most of your time with your kids before they hit 12. Let that land.
