Pappy Hour E39 w/ Daniel Katz

from Pappy Hour · host Lucas Budde and Eric Thompson

Raised in a strict Orthodox Jewish world, married at 20, father by 22, Daniel Katz went from living by the rules to questioning everything. This episode gets deep, fast. Faith, miscarriage, identity, conscious parenting, leaving community, and what it means to choose your own life instead of the one handed to you.Daniel shares the wild story of raising his son Aya while traveling farm-to-farm across the country, why his son eventually chose his own name, and how becoming a dad cracked his entire world open.This one is raw, thoughtful, and unlike any episode we’ve done so far.
