In addition, he shares what he hopes other dads will take from his book. Lastly, we finish the interview with the Fatherhood Quick Five. About Brian Gray Brian Graythought he knew. He showed up, put in the work, did all the "right" things. But every day, he fought an invisible battle against unseen, unchallenged forces shaping his life in ways he didn't understand. One day, he saw the trajectory of his life if he stayed the same, and it shook him to his core. That wake-up call led to his powerful discovery that inside every man are four forces shaping him: Warrior, King, Wizard, Jester. Left unchecked, they produce mediocrity, distraction, and regret. But when trained, fueled, and aligned, they are the key to strength, wisdom, and a life of deep meaning. Brian focuses his attention on his wife and two daughters and their busy life in Los Angeles. A graduate of the University of California, Santa Barbara, Brian believes that life should be full of joy and laughter, and he finds it on his snowboard and in books and documentaries.

Yet, like so many other men, the necessities of modern adult life had forced his friendships to the background. At one point his friends had been instrumental in broadening his horizons, bolstering his courage, providing safe harbor. Now, McCarthy found himself questioning what had happened to those friendships. Whether he needed them, what he valued, and what he had to offer. A simple question had become a moment that demanded a reckoning. About The Art of Fatherhood Podcast The Art of Fatherhood Podcast follows the journey of fatherhood.
