34. How I Stopped Yelling to My Kid: Reparenting...

Dadicated Joe ·

2025/12/29

It's been said we're the first generation reparenting ourselves at the same time we're parenting our kids. Becoming a dad didn't just change my schedule. It exposed parts of me I didn't know were still running the show. A wounded inner child is desperately in need of a loving parent. My parents did their absolute best, but just didn't have the tools and skills we have today to allow for feelings and set healthy boundaries without shame. I discovered it isn't just my child who needs that support, but

2025/12/22

It is largely just accepted that new parents don't sleep for a year. But does it have to be that way!? Sleep deprivation does more than make us tired. It messes with our heads, our patience, our relationships, and our general sanity. When I became a dad, I accepted exhaustion as part of the deal. I assumed this was just how newborn life worked and that struggling through it was normal. Dr. Harvey Karp, a child sleep expert and the author of Happiest Baby on the Block, decided to question this

2025/12/15

The workload of the holidays hits moms everywhere. Whether consciously or unconsciously, they take on the lion's share of the planning, the meals, the gifts, the travel, the traditions, the emotional labor — all while I stayed focused on logistics. And then rather than share in the fun and excitement the holidays are supposed to be about, they can end up stressed out, resentful, and just wanting it to be over. This is what happened with us, and my wife helped me learn how I could change it. I

Dadicated Joe ·

2025/12/08

The school system really messed me up. I would not fit into the standardized box they try to jam kids into, and was deeply wounded by them trying to hammer me into it. This left me passionate about changing the way we treat kids. I tried to create my own school for Della, but it was VERY HARD. So I was so lucky to find the Whole Life Learning Center, founded by Micheal Carberry for his two boys, now ages 8 and 10. In this episode, Micheal explains how kids learn best when their nervous system feels

30. How to Choose the Right School with Michael Carberry

Dadicated Joe ·

2025/12/03

Parents often have so many questions when it comes to choosing a school, and it's easy to get confused about what is important and what isn't. These days, kids are usually measured by report cards and behavior standard benchmarks that rarely reflect who they are or how they're actually growing. But underneath all of that is the real question we should be asking as parents: What is school actually for? And, How will we know if it's fulfilling that purpose? To speak to this, I bought on Michael

29. Dad's Guide to Starting Solids

Dadicated Joe ·

2025/11/24

This is a subject my wife and I became accidental experts on when we went looking for foods for our baby and didn't like what we found. We (meaning my wife) did enormous research on infant nutrition, which became the foundation for our baby food company Serenity Kids. Starting solids is an exciting time that dads can help with a ton! Doing the research, purchasing ingredients, mashing up soft foods, or making purees are all ways dads can literally put food on the table! In addition to being

Skylar is a registered dietitian and co-founder of I Am Nurtured, a prenatal and postnatal supplement brand born from personal struggle.

Dadicated Joe ·

2025/10/28

When my wife was pregnant and postpartum she was a snacking monster, and then my toddler became the endless blackhole of snacks. Keeping up with the sheer volume is hard enough, but then we are also health conscious and both my wife and daughter are super tasters, so finding healthy snacks that actually tasted good felt impossible. Most packaged snacks are either loaded with sugar or taste like cardboard. IQBar saved us! They make amazing bars, coffee, and electrolytes that taste great, are packed

Dadicated Joe ·

2025/10/14

I used to think gut health was something you worried about after a bad meal or too many antibiotics. Turns out, gut health starts at birth and can affect them their entire life! Their gut microbes in the first 1,000 days of life can lay the foundation for everything—immunity, digestion, even emotional regulation—and they’re influenced by choices we make as parents from day one. In this episode, I sit down with my friend Cheryl Sew Hoy, founder and CEO of Tiny Health, to unpack how the gut microbiome

Dadicated Joe ·

2025/10/12

Being a girl dad is the greatest joy—and the greatest responsibility—of my life. From the moment Della realized she was her own little person, she’s been a daddy’s girl. She’ll tell you herself: Mommy’s the best at boo boos and boundaries, and Daddy brings the fun, the wrestling, and the big questions about life. I knew that moms and dads sometimes parented differently, but I underestimated how specific my role as a dad would be. Stepping fully into my role as her dad, not just a “parent”, frees

2025/09/30

Divorce can tear families apart, or it can be the start of something new. For Josh Cearbaugh, father of five in a blended family, it was both. In this episode, I sit down with Josh Cearbaugh, a father of five in a blended family with kids ages 7 through 16. Josh has walked through addiction, divorce, and the painful work of rebuilding trust. What I love about his story is how real it is. He doesn’t sugarcoat the devastation kids feel when a marriage ends, or how long it takes to earn trust as a

22. Toddler Tantrum Tactics for Healthy Emotional Growth

2025/09/23

Most of us want to make toddler tantrums stop. I sure did. But tantrums are actually essential, developmentally appropriate signs of healthy growth and development, and the way we respond can determine how safe our children feel experiencing their emotions for life. In this episode, I share the five-step process I use with my daughter Della when she melts down over everything from chocolate to not being able to touch the moon. I also discuss why tantrums trigger us so much, like how I learned my

2025/09/16

We may think a lot about what foods our kids should eat, but what about what we DON’T want them to eat? I’m not just talking about junk food, but junk that ends up in what would otherwise be healthy food. In this episode, I sit down with my friend, fellow food entrepreneur, and health warrior Parker Brooks, father of two and founder of Lovebird cereal. Parker left his career at General Mills after his daughter was born, driven by a “Jerry Maguire moment” that changed everything. What followed was

2025/09/02

What struck me most about this episode was the fact that choices parents make in pregnancy and early childhood can deeply affect their child for LIFE! So while I knew this period of my child’s life was important, I was surprised at how much I can (and therefore must) influence their lifelong trajectory with a few smart choices at the very start. In this conversation, I sit down with Dave Asprey, the father of biohacking and creator of Bulletproof Coffee, to talk about optimizing pregnancy, early

18. End Your Wife’s Resentment in 3 Steps

Resentful women. Resentful wives. Resentful moms. This has become normal. Men hate it, feeling like they can never do enough and are always being criticized. Women hate it, feeling like they are constantly abandoned and left to do everything on their own. It seems impossible, but there is a solution! I’ve dealt with my wife’s resentment for years, and am happy to say I have reduced it by at least 90%! In this episode, I dig into how resentment shows up in parenting partnerships and why it’s not

Most of us think we’re failing as dads when we lose our temper or feel disconnected. But what if the real work starts way before that, inside the relationship, inside the tension, inside ourselves? In this episode, I sit down with relationship coach Scott Wild to unpack what it takes to co-parent without drifting apart. Scott and his wife Mel, have two kids under two. They’re in the thick of it. And yet they’ve built practices that help them stay emotionally connected, even when they’re exhausted,

Our birth didn’t go as planned. We wanted a peaceful home birth. We ended up in the hospital In the middle of the night getting a C-section. And you know what? It was still a great birth—because we were prepared. I was prepared. I spent months learning everything I could about childbirth. I talked to midwives, studied birth plans, and mapped out every possible scenario. Not because I wanted control—but because I wanted to be a full part of the process and protect my wife’s wishes.

Jason Bronstad thought he was doing everything right—executive title, steady paycheck, hustle mode always on. But when his four-year-old son told him his “dad voice” was what hurt him the most, it shattered the illusion. What followed was a total redefinition of fatherhood—from suppressing emotions and prioritizing work, to sitting on the stairs and asking his kids what they really feel. In this brutally honest conversation, Jason opens up about missing nearly an entire month of his wife’s

Sleep is one of the MOST challenging aspects of having a new born. And yet it is so important for babies development, and for parents’ physical and mental health! I used to think constant exhaustion was just part of new fatherhood, but the truth is, poor sleep breaks everything: our health, our patience, our connection, even our sanity. In this solo episode, I share the sleep strategies that helped my wife recover, my daughter thrive, and made me a better dad. From blackout curtains and nose
