Sinopsis
In this episode, I explore what happens in a man’s mind when he becomes a father—and why so many dads carry their emotional weight in silence.From new dads to empty-nesters, the mental and emotional load of fatherhood is real—but rarely named. I’ll walk you through the neuroscience of paternal bonding, stress regulation, identity shifts, and inherited emotional silence. This is not just a tribute to dads—it’s a call to see them, support them, and understand them through the lens of brain science and mental health.I also sit down with my husband, Mac Leaf, for a candid conversation about his experience as a father—and what he wishes more people knew.This is the episode every dad, partner, son, and supporter of fatherhood needs to hear.
