I spent two nights camping with my daughter, and what I witnessed at that campground changed me.
In this episode, I’m sharing two stories of two very different fathers. One was the "Happy Father"—calm, unaffected, and full of warmth even when his kids were shoving walnuts into his truck's gas tank. The other was the "Monster Father"—a man who used his size and voice to crush his three-year-old son into submission over a simple grassy hill.
We often tell ourselves the lie that our kids are "too young to remember" the moments we snap. They might not remember the words, but their nervous systems remember the terror. They learn to flinch. They learn that "normal" is chaos and fear.
Are you building a memory that comforts your child when they’re lonely, or a memory that fuels their anxiety?
In this episode, we discuss:
- The nervous system impact of "the snap."
- Why angry fathers are actually just mad at themselves.
- How to rebuild your self-control brick by brick.
- Choosing to be the lighthouse—the immovable, joyous leader of your home.
You can be the superhero they run toward, or the monster they fear. You get to decide.
