Pappy Hour E16 w/ Chris Frank

Chris Frank shows up fresh off a sleepless night — the kind that hits hard and reshapes you — and talks about how fatherhood has turned the volume down on his inner critic. Before June was born, Chris lived in a career-first, achievement-driven lane. After two miscarriages and the long road to becoming a dad, everything changed.He opens up about growing up in Alaska, a dad who praised accomplishments, and how becoming a father later in life forced a mindset shift: presence over promotion, gratitude over grind. From dancing with his infant daughter to watching her push through hip dysplasia with pure determination, this one hits every note — honest, grounded, and full of heart.If the episode lands for you, drop a comment and leave a review.
