This episode is a direct conversation about presence. Not being in the house. Not being in the room. Actually being present.

I share honest reflections on fatherhood, the moments I got wrong, the moments that still hurt to think about, and what therapy has taught me about attention, listening, and emotional availability.

This is not about guilt. It is about awareness. Because the moments you postpone today quietly become the regrets you carry tomorrow.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why saying "just a minute" slowly turns into years.

• The difference between being home and being present.

• How distraction, work pressure, and mental noise pull you away from the people who matter most.

• What your children are really asking for when they ask for your time.

• Why presence is listening, eye contact, and emotional availability.

• The long term impact of fatherhood on identity, confidence, and self belief.

• The moment you realise your kids will not always ask you to play.

If you are building a business, chasing success, or carrying responsibility, this episode is a reminder of what actually lasts. Careers come and go. Relationships do not.

Listen carefully. One day, they stop asking.
