Ep 1: Willie Pang: "Dad, You're Not Listening" - The Wake-Up Call That Changed Everything

Join Lauren and Lou as they sit down with Willie Pang (Country Manager, Amazon Ads) for a candid conversation about balancing a high-pressure career with fatherhood. Willie shares how his incredible career journey, including a weekly commute from Sydney to San Francisco with a newborn at home, profoundly shaped his approach to family life. He opens up about the reality of "dad guilt," the pivotal moment his son told him "Dad, you're not listening to me," and the importance of joint decision-making with your partner. Discover Willie's three core values for a fulfilling career and family life, why he reassessed his relationship with alcohol, and why simply 'being present in the moment' can be the most powerful act of all. An honest, raw, and insightful discussion for every working parent.
