In this special series called The Year Between Us, we welcome back Tony Roy — pilot, father of four, and returning AudioLife guest — for an honest conversation about growth, perspective, and what truly matters.

One year after recording his original audio memoir, Tony reflects on the chaos and beauty of 2025: raising four daughters, navigating career and family demands, completing major life projects, and finding meaning in everyday moments. From lessons learned on ski slopes and softball fields to deeper reflections on effort, excellence, and presence as a parent, this episode is a powerful reminder that progress isn’t always measured by outcomes — but by how fully we show up.

This conversation is about fatherhood, perspective, resilience, and the quiet magic hidden inside ordinary days.
