Letting Kids Be Kids: Less Tech, Less Structure, More Connection. |EP153|
Friday Apr 12, 2024
Friday Apr 12, 2024
|EP153| Today on Stay At Home Dads Podcast I open the show with the monumental eclipse we had this week. Quite a sight to see but also such a huge buildup to something that's over in minutes. I then get into a book I have been reading called Let Them Be Kids by Jessica Smartt. I go over a few things I read so far that really resonated with me like over scheduling our kids, limiting technology, and how the primary thing kids should be doing is play. I also go over her 6 facts about tech and our kids. This book is a great read so far so I highly recommend it, I'll link it in the text below. Thank you so much for listening, if you have any questions or comments for me, please reach me at the links below!

The 8 Biggest Regrets Elderly People Have And How To Avoid Them. |EP151|
Friday Mar 15, 2024
Friday Mar 15, 2024
|EP151| Today on Stay At Home Dads Podcast I open the show talking about a recent trip to Texas my wife and I took for work as well as some sight seeing, exploring, as well as the many positive interactions we had with people that live there. The talk of travel made me think of today's topic of living with regret, that people typically regret not traveling, seeing the world or doing certain things when their young, and find they no longer can when they're old. So today I discuss an article that mentions the top 8 things a group of 1500 elderly people regret and what we can do to not be in the same boat as them when we become their age. Thank you so much for listening, if you have any questions or comments for me, please reach me at the links below!

|EP150| Today on Stay At Home Dads Podcast I dive right into this touchy and moreover frustrating subject of the ever evolving landscape of children's nutrition. I discuss my childhood, what the expectation was for me and most people from my generation to this new trend of contemporary parenting by referencing a dialogue I had online about getting kids to eat their food. Do we call it lax parents, entitled kids, and mix of both? I'll let you be the judge. I follow up my story telling with some practical and personal tips that will hopefully help us all be better, more nutritionally conscious people.

Revamping Resolutions. Using SMART Goals For Ultimate Success. |EP147|
Saturday Jan 20, 2024
Saturday Jan 20, 2024
|EP147| Today on Stay At Home Dads Podcast I recap my hiatus for the past few weeks with holiday time, vacation time, and taking an unexpected trip with my spouse. I then talk about proclamations a lot of people make this time or year or sooner, resolutions, things we want to change about ourselves over the following year. But this got me thinking, just having a resolution isn't really enough, and what is the real difference between a resolution and an actual goal? I then talk about SMART goals, what they are, what it means, and how we can utilize the SMART method with our goals for the new year. Lastly, I ask the question; What is we fail, what do we do when we slip? We know it won't be give up and quit, thats for sure!

Friday Jan 12, 2024
|EP146| Today on this Dad Classic episode of Stay At Home Dads Podcast, I start off with more complaining! I thought it was tough when my two girls had an E-day, well now they got sick and missed school for multiple days. Along with navigating that, I myself got sick! So today I talk about things I personally do when I'm sick to bounce back as fast as I can. I also check the internet to see if my ideas are total bull, or have some validity. Disclaimer, my ideas and tips are not new or ground breaking, they are just things I do that seem to really work for me and hopefully work for you as well.

Dad Classic: Are You A Passive Pushover? 10 Ways To More Assertive. |EP145|
Friday Jan 05, 2024
Friday Jan 05, 2024
|EP145| Today on this Dad Classic of Stay At Home Dads Podcast I open the show talking the damage I did to the very symbol of my marriage... My ring! Who wold have thought the strongest ring in the world could be damaged. I also mention a news clip I saw about what the Surgeon General thinks about social media with kids as well as make a comparison to Star Bursts.
lastly I talk about being assertive and standing up for myself. I've been having a bunch of work done to my house lately and I've come to find that I'm not very good at communicating, confronting and negotiating with contractors and probably other people in my life. I enjoy helping people and going with the flow but does that mean I'm a passive people pleaser? I discuss the article Ten tips to be more assertive so maybe I can practice and sharpen my assertiveness skills. Attached below is an assertiveness self assessment you can do on your own for fun. New episodes will be back next week!

Dad Classic: The Importance Of Play With Our Kids |EP144|
Friday Dec 29, 2023
Friday Dec 29, 2023
|EP144|On today's Dad Classic episode of Stay At Home Podcast, I open the show talking about New Years, that it's great to have fresh goals and aspirations for the new year but we also need to make sure we focus on making the change, whatever it may be, day by day.
I also mention the loss of Ken Block, one of the greatest professional drivers in the motorsports world. I talk about his career and his famed Gymkhana video series.
Lastly I talk about a thought I had over the holiday break about the importance of actually playing with our kids rather than giving them copious amounts of things to occupy their time. I reference a few article that talk about the importance for not just the kids but the parents as well to play, pretend, and immerse ourselves into that world. It's more important than you think!

|EP140| Today on Stay At Home Dads Podcast I discuss my recent family gathering over the holiday break. My wife and I hosted Thanksgiving this year so it was nice as well as challenging being the responsible ones to plan and cook everything for the day but it was also very rewarding. I then get into the subject of dogs and my wife and I's quest to potentially find a puppy for our family. I tell a story about our experience going to a dog breeder and my thoughts and opinions on what we saw. Lastly, I get into some data and articles about the rise in puppy breeders, ethical breeders, and questions we should ask when tying to find the best breeder for a puppy. Links to articles are below.

Dad Classic: Movember= Men’s Health Awareness Month. |EP139|
Friday Nov 24, 2023
Friday Nov 24, 2023
Today on this Dad Classic Episode of Stay At Home Dads Podcast I dip up an oldie from 2021 where I get into the meaning of the Movember movement and men’s health. Have a great Thanksgiving weekend! Happy November, or Movember as it's also called these days. I actually came across a story on social media about mens mental health awareness and that men are more likely to commit suicide much more often than women so I thought this warranted a discussion. I also take a deep dive into Britney Spears and her mental health, as well as taking a look into what Movember is all about. Enjoy!

The Inflammation Saga: Debunking Myths & Finding Solutions. |EP138|
Friday Nov 17, 2023
Friday Nov 17, 2023
|EP138| Today on Stay At Home Dads Podcast I talk about something I am not well versed in at all and thats inflammation and how it can play a big part in our health. I get into what different types of inflammation there are, as well as five tips to help reduce chronic inflammation. I also mention a few myths and misconceptions about inflammation like is it really the cause of a lot of illnesses? I honestly don't know much about this specific topic, I came across a few interesting articles so I'm trying to learn as I go but I do think it's something we should be aware of and think about to better take care of ourselves.

Reacting with Intention: Steps For Better Emotional Control. |EP135|
Friday Oct 27, 2023
Friday Oct 27, 2023
|EP135| Today on Stay At Home Dads Podcast I open the show talking about a topic I discussed a few weeks ago about the value of accomplishing hard things. I had this thought that may explain why people are less apt to do those hard things, and it has to do with things becoming too easy. I then talk about some people watching I did while at a concert with my with the other weekend and how my perception of a certain situation prompted me to think about how I would respond if this situation were to turn negative. I expand on this with how we deal with situations around us and how we react to them. I talk about why we may emotionally react and what actionable steps we can take to have better responses in emotionally charged situations.

Dad Classic: Validating Our Kids And Navigating Their Emotions. |EP134|
Friday Oct 20, 2023
Friday Oct 20, 2023
|EP134| On this Dad Classic episode of Stay at Home Dads I start off with a little On This Day. I also talk about daylight savings time and why in the hell are we changing the clocks. Lastly, I get into validation with our kids, how we inadvertently dismiss our kids emotions and how we can go about validating these emotions to help them build strong self regulating skills. I also wanted to talk about validation in our adults lives, how we crave that validation on life choices, decisions we make, to purchases we make, but that will be discussed at another time. New episodes will be back next week!
