  • 259 - Why Asking for Help Is Your Greatest Strength
    2025/06/09

    Divorce can feel like a storm that rolls in fast—no forecast, no shelter, no time to prepare. One day, you're a husband, a full-time father, a provider with a plan. The next, you’re staring at an empty home, a fractured schedule with your kids, and a mountain of legal and emotional upheaval. It doesn’t just split assets—it splits your identity.

    You may find yourself questioning your worth, your role, and your future. The routines that grounded you—picking up your kids from school, sitting at the dinner table, even just being part of a family unit—can vanish overnight. Finances take a hit. Friendships grow awkward. Even the strongest men can feel blindsided, powerless, and utterly alone.

    If you’re a dad navigating this storm, I want you to know something crucial: you’re not weak for struggling, and you don’t have to weather it alone. This month—Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month—is the perfect time to drop the armor, silence the shame, and take a real, honest look at what you’re carrying inside.

    Because you're not just fighting for yourself—you're fighting for your presence in your children's lives, for your future peace of mind, and for the version of you that’s still in there, waiting to rise.

    Let’s talk. Let’s be honest. And most importantly—let’s help each other make it through.

  • 257 - "Stay Strong" - What That Really Means for Divorced and Divorcing Dads
    2025/05/26

    When I tell a dad going through divorce to stay strong, I’m not throwing him a vague motivational cliché. I’m giving him a call to arms—a reminder of what strength looks like when your world is cracking open, when your identity as a father is getting reshaped by custody schedules, courtrooms, and the quiet ache of an empty house.

    Strength during divorce doesn’t look like keeping a stiff upper lip and pretending everything’s fine. It’s not about powering through without feeling anything. Real strength, in this context, is much messier, more grounded, and more necessary than that. Here’s what stay strong really means:

  • 255 - REPLAY: Why Every Dad Needs a Coach
    2025/05/12

    Feeling overwhelmed by divorce? You're not alone. The journey through divorce as a dad presents unique challenges that can leave even the most confident men feeling lost and uncertain about the future.

    Divorce coaching has emerged as a crucial resource for fathers navigating this difficult transition. While attorneys focus solely on legal matters, therapists on emotional healing, and financial advisors on money concerns, a divorce coach provides the comprehensive guidance needed to integrate these perspectives into a cohesive strategy tailored to your specific situation.

    In this episode, I outline seven compelling reasons why hiring a divorce coach should be your first step—even before retaining an attorney.

  • 254 - The Hidden Battle: How Feminism Undermines Co-Parenting
    2025/05/05

    Modern feminism has moved far beyond equality. Today, it’s about control — and nowhere is that more obvious than in the aftermath of divorce. In custody courts, in legal systems, and in the culture itself, divorced fathers are being systematically pushed aside, not because they’ve failed their children, but because they don’t fit the feminist-approved narrative of what a post-divorce family should look like.

    If you’re a father going through divorce, or already fighting to stay in your child’s life, you’ve felt this.

    Every move you make is twisted through a lens designed to cast doubt on your motives and minimize your role. The system — backed by decades of feminist legal theory and cultural propaganda — doesn’t see you as a co-equal parent. It sees you as a liability to be managed.

    And the damage doesn’t stop with you.

    Your children are the ones who suffer most — emotionally, psychologically, and developmentally — when ideology is allowed to override truth. They lose not just time with their father, but the stability, identity, and love that only a strong, present dad can give.

    This episode isn’t about playing victim. It’s about waking up, standing up, and fighting smart.

    Because you can protect your children from this.

    But it starts with understanding what you’re up against — and refusing to play by a script that was written to erase you.

  • 253 - Should You Welcome a Parental Coordinator or Decision Maker (PC/DM)?
    2025/04/28

    If you're a divorced or divorcing dad, the idea of a "parental coordinator" (PC) or "decision maker" (DM) might feel like another loss of control. Courts sometimes assign one when parents are high-conflict or consistently stuck on big issues. It's normal to feel suspicious or defensive. But like everything in divorce, there's a mix of positives and negatives you need to know — with real-life examples to make it clear.
