The Mental Load of Fatherhood and Why Anger Isn't a Superpower

from Authentic Parenting · host Anna Seewald

Jon Gustin from Tired Dad on what it really means to show up as a father not perfectly, but intentionally, how to keep the bigger picture front and center when you're exhausted, triggered, and pulled in a hundred directions… and why the real work of parenting starts within. Also, why anger it's not a superpower, even though so many men have been taught that it is. And much more.
