Are you building a life your kids will be proud of or just one they’ll need to heal from?

In this emotionally charged episode of Answer Me This, we get brutally honest about the trade-offs we make as fathers chasing success, security, and legacy… often at the cost of connection, presence, and joy.

If you’re a dad battling burnout, feeling the pressure to provide, and unsure whether you’re giving your kids the life they need now, this episode is worth a listen.

In this episode, we take a look at:

The tension between providing for the future vs. being present today

How your kids are shaped by your actions under pressure and not your intentions

The emotional cost of chasing the dream without checking in on your family’s needs

Why disconnection, not stress, is the silent destroyer of modern fatherhood

You’re not here just to build a legacy. You’re here to shape their present. Your children are watching how you show up under pressure, in the joy of the moment and during setbacks.

This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being intentional.

This week - Answer me this:

Are you building a life they’ll thank you for or one they’ll recover from?

And if you’re in that constant grind, pause for a moment.

What will they remember? The house… or how they felt inside it?
