He is an advocate for fathers and believes many men want to be good fathers but, for a number of reasons, struggle with that role. Based on his own experiences, including his failures, he’s dedicated himself to helping them.In this episode, Stew and Larry talk about men’s roles in their families; the obstacles they face at home, at work, and in society that conspire against them being the dads they want to be for their children; the changes occurring in men’s and fathers’ roles; how the pandemic is having an impact on dads at home and at work; and much more.  If you’re a father, then here is an invitation, a challenge, for you, once you’ve listened to the conversation.  Think of one thing on which you need help from someone in your life -- support of some kind, any kind, that will enable you to be a better father -- and then find a way of asking for it.  Pay attention to what it feels like to request help and how the person(s) you’re asking reacts.  What do you discover? Write to Stew Friedman to let him know, at [email protected], or connect with him on LinkedIn.  While you’re at it, share your thoughts with Stew on this episode and ideas for future shows.  Hosted on Acast.
