The Rise & Dad Podcast name is inspired from the “Rise & Shine/Grind” expression with a twist on fatherhood. As fathers, we wake up & choose to “dad” and should be intentional about how we live as fathers, partners, and people. Each day we wake up and choose to dad in the best way possible. Rise and Dad!

This podcast is meant to be an open forum for dads of all walks of life to talk about common themes, misunderstandings, experiences, and life as a dad. I’ll bring on different dads from all walks of life — maybe a corporate 9-5 dad, a stay-at-home dad, or a soon to be dad. There is something to learn & something to share behind everyone’s dad story. Come rise and dad with us…
