Follow him on instagram: @derektripplett What You'll Learn:  In this episode, Derek Triplett opens up about the powerful and often unspoken connection between the fathers in our lives and the mental and emotional health of our sons. He will explore how the presence or absence of a father shapes a young man's sense of worth, identity, and ability to cope, why mental health conversations between fathers and sons are so rare and why they are so necessary, and practical ways fathers can show up with intention, vulnerability, and strength for the boys who are watching their every move.
