THE DAD CO. podcast

This week, I chat with Josh Morrison, a psychologist, about the Netflix series Adolescence — and what it shows us about the wild ride our teens are on. We talk social media, tech use, mental health, and how we as dads can actually show up and support our kids through it all. If you've ever scratched your head wondering what’s going on in your teen’s world, this one’s for you. Resources mentioned in episode: 1. Headspace (https://headspace.org.au/) 2.

I spoke with Brandon from the dad hours, an online community that strives to make health, fitness and nutrition accessible for parents and busy people. If you want to kick start your health this one is for you.

Ben speaks with Dave Harvey who leads the leadership network in Bethel Church about the importance of allowing God to guide us in our parenting and how God has impacted him and his parenting. There's also a bit of fun in there too! One not to be missed.
