Episode 36: Dads Aren’t Alone, Mental Health, Community & Redefining Fatherhood

Being a dad today looks a lot different than it did when we were kids. Fathers are talking about mental health, balancing work and family, and even searching for support in ways that used to carry a lot of stigma. In this episode, Josh and Jimmy sit down to talk honestly about the struggles dads face — from burnout and anxiety to the changing roles of fatherhood.We’ll look at why community matters (Naperville Dad Network, City Dads Group, Brooklyn Stroll Club), how co-parenting and children’s mental health fit into the picture, and how dads can find strength by leaning on each other and on Christ.This isn’t about being perfect — it’s about being present.Topics we cover:Dad mental health: depression, anxiety, and postpartum strugglesBurnout and the pressure of being both provider and hands-on parentBreaking stigma and finding brotherhood in dad groupsCo-parenting, shifting family dynamics, and supporting kids’ mental healthBuilding identity and community as fathers of faithScripture grounding: Psalm 34:18, Matthew 11:28, Proverbs 27:17, Deuteronomy 6:7👉 Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share this with a dad who needs to hear it. 👉 Got a story or question?
