Dr. Jett Stone, clinical psychologist and author of Quiet Your Mind: A Men's Guide, joins me to talk about paternal mental health and the invisible emotional load modern fathers are carrying, many without language, models, or permission to talk about it. Together we explore: -Why millennial dads often feel like they're parenting without a blueprint. - How intergenerational patterns and "boyhood rules" shape the way men show up as fathers. - Why so many dads feel like the "secondary parent" and how mothers can invite fathers in without diminishing their own needs or experiencing resentment. - The tension between wanting authority and wanting connection with your child (and how to hold both). - Why secure attachment with dads doesn't have to look exactly like secure attachment with moms. - How doing your own reflective work as a parent can transform the entire family system. This conversation will help you understand the emotional lives of fathers with more compassion and clarity. Because when dads feel supported, included, and emotionally resourced, the whole family benefits. Whether you're a parent, a partner, or a therapist working with families, this episode will expand the way you think about modern fatherhood. LEARN MORE ABOUT MY GUEST:

In this episode of Dads on the Fly, we sit down with renowned sporting artist Paul Puckett to talk about the journey that led him to combine his love for fly fishing and art into a career. Growing up fishing with his grandfathers in Texas and later working in fly shops across the country, Paul found a way to turn the moments we all love on the water into paintings that tell a story. We talk about how travel, family, and time on the water have shaped his life, why certain fishing memories stay with us forever, and how creativity often comes from simply paying attention to the places and people around us. Paul also shares stories from his adventures around the world, what inspires his famous “catch and release” paintings, and how being a dad influences the way he looks at both art and fishing. This episode is about more than art or fly fishing — it's about slowing down, making memories, and learning to appreciate the moments that matter most.https://www.paulpuckettart.com/Time Will Tell filmGet your Dads On The Fly Merch in our online store .Check out our sponsors:https://turtleboxaudio.com/https://nativesflyfishing.com/https://saludabeads.com/https://rambler.co/

George Rivera's father was dying when he delivered the advice that changed everything: stop missing your son's games. That single conversation forced Rivera—a self-made entrepreneur running a $20 million business—to rethink what success actually looks like when your kids are growing up without you. In this powerful conversation with host John Golden, Rivera opens up about the emotional toll of being a founder and why so many entrepreneur dads stay trapped in a cycle they never planned for. He introduces the concept behind his 18 Summers Roundtable, a community where founder fathers share real struggles, hold each other accountable, and commit to being present before those eighteen childhood summers slip away. Rivera also tackles the mindset shift required to move from "always on" to truly engaged—covering everything from calendar boundaries and shutdown routines to the daily scorecards that let you step away from the business without anxiety. This isn't about working less. It's about making sure the work serves your life instead of replacing it.

Proud, hypocritical spouses are sadly not unusual in Christian homes. Unsubmissive wives who refuse to attend church — or unloving husbands who refuse to lead the family. They claim Christ, but won't follow Him. So is there anything you can you do? Can you "fix" your spouse? Is church discipline appropriate? Is it different dealing with a bad husband vs a bad wife? The panel lays out practical strategies and biblical principles.
When do you make time to do the things that you need to do? The things you want to tackle and clear out and fix up and organize Because those things start to weigh you down. They start to pile up.

Send a textToday, we welcome Robert Paylor to the podcast with an amazing and inspiring story!A national championship match. A broken neck. In a few violent seconds, Robert went from Cal rugby standout to a young man hearing he'd never walk or move his hands again. What happened next wasn't a neat comeback—it was a decision repeated every day: control the mindset, fight the fight, and build a life anchored in faith, family, and purpose.We invited Robert to unpack the full arc—growing up on humility and service, finding identity in elite sport, then losing it in an instant and choosing to rebuild from the inside out. He shares the exact moment a spiritual mentor reframed his power, how his mom and dad went “beast mode” to secure lifesaving rehab, and why forgiveness became his most demanding discipline. Robert explains how a GoFundMe turned into a global community, why fear and burnout can be as paralyzing as injury, and how practical routines, visible reps, and top 1% effort create momentum when odds say quit.You'll also hear the love story that steadied him—meeting Carson after the injury, embracing vows that mean something, and becoming a dad against long odds. Robert talks candidly about identity, faith under pressure, and being the man he wants his son to become: pray, plan, put the phone down, love well, and work with intent. Today he walks 500 yards with a walker, speaks to teams and companies, and wrote Paralyzed to Powerful to turn pain into tools anyone can use.If you're searching for a mindset reset, a model of leadership at home, or a reason to forgive and move forward, this conversation will stay with you.

When culture lowers the bar, fathers feel crazy for raising it. We sat down with therapist, mentor, and outdoorsman Ken Curry to name what's really slipping—and to chart a stronger path: presence over distraction, authority over control, and adventure over comfort. From the grocery line to the courtroom, we trace how attention gets captured, standards get blurred, and dads get mislabeled for doing the hard, healthy work of setting boundaries.Ken breaks down the two essential energies kids need: the mother's focus on well-being and the father's drive for confidence. Together they create balance; split across two homes, they can become a tug of war. We get practical about helping kids “switch systems” after custody exchanges, using clear values, steady routines, and calm follow-through so house rules feel like culture, not combat. We also unpack the crucial difference between authoritative parenting and authoritarian control, especially when firm expectations are unfairly framed as harshness by outsiders who don't live the day-to-day.This conversation returns again and again to your internal frame—the identity, values, and emotional composure that make leadership feel safe and strong. Ken shares ways to build that frame, from men's groups and mentoring to simple rituals like shared chores, limited screens, family dinners, and planned adventures that stretch kids in all the right ways. Presence is not a buzzword; it's a practice that turns ordinary moments into trust and turns resistance into respect. If you've ever wondered whether you're “too strict” or simply the only adult holding the line, you'll leave with clarity, language, and tools you can use tonight.If this resonates, share it with a dad who needs backbone and encouragement, subscribe for more honest conversations about fatherhood, and leave a review with the one boundary you're committed to holding this week.

Send a textWhat if the fastest route to a meaningful life is slowing down for the people at home? Today, we welcome the founder and CEO of Arena Staffing, Dave Kooiman.In our conversation, Dave opens up about small-town roots, a painful college cut, getting fired, and the surprising breakthroughs that followed. The result isn't a hustle story; it's a playbook for building a family culture with clear values, humble leadership, and daily presence.We start with gratitude and the simple joy of being together—church, school, coaches, and late-night game watching. Dave introduces us to his family's world: a long love story with his wife and three kids on different paths—golf, cheer, flag football, and baseball. When his daughter lost the spark for club soccer, he didn't double down. He listened. That choice reframed attitude and effort at home and became the seed for the “Kooiman Compass,” a visible set of family values—Kindness, Obedience, Opportunity, Initiative, Mission, Appreciation, Non-judgment—posted in the kitchen to guide everyday behavior.From there, we head into the hard stuff. Dave relives getting cut from college soccer for being “not all-in,” a lesson in commitment that stung for a year but forged resilience. Later, a corporate firing pushed him to launch Arena, a skilled trades staffing and headhunting firm in the AEC space. We unpack risk, personal guarantees, and the early years of living lean.
