Men Want a Fairy Tale Love Too | The Dear Son, Show | Ep 76 #manhood #parenting #worthy #lovehurts

The burden of manhood is heavy. Sometimes we get weighed down with its duties and responsibilities, which leaves little room for an expectation of being loved the way we want and need to be. Some men want a fairy tale love too. This may be a hot take for some, and others may assume the title is just for the views, but I challenge you to really give this some thought. A fairy tale is just a curated escape from reality. I’d submit that everyone has (or has had) those moments in life. For this episode’s conversationalist, Tim Nicholas, the escapes were frequent and necessary to manage the hand that life dealt him. He gives us a transparent peek into his challenges with finding love throughout his life. As a young child he struggled with finding acceptance and often felt overlooked by his father. Later in life, he learned several tough lessons about manhood, love, parenthood and how they intersected. Now he revels in his role as a husband, father of seven (yes, seven), and most importantly, a son of the Most High. Buckle up…this is a great one.This conversation, as do most, provides a transparent view of life through the lens of fatherhood; however, it does not exclude women. There may be parallel experiences that resonate with you, or you may just want a peak into the minds of men. We wouldn’t be here without you. You're welcome.... you’re all welcome. We invite you to take this ride with us to experience life as we know it.We learned quite about ourselves during this dialogue, and that’s typical. Hopefully, a point or two will prompt you to have similar meaningful discussions in your home. We highly recommend that you consume the entire episode for the best results.
