Dad Dialogue

Joining Laurence for another episode of the Dad Dialogue podcast this time is CJ Robinson. CJ is an author based in the US and in the conversation, we talk a lot about CJ’s upbringing, the impact his father had on him as well as how CJ conquered alcoholism and what that journey looked like alongside meeting his now wife and becoming a step-father.  CJ displays lots of vulnerability with his story and it is clear to see how he believes that this sort of openness and vulnerability is a positive thing to help others deal with their own struggles and challenges. CJ also has some positive stories of how he has helped his daughter conquer her own challenges. You can find out more about CJ here. Find his book of poetry on Amazon.

On the Dad Dialogue podcast this week is Devin Krotmen from Nashville Dad Walks! Devin has two kids with another on the way very soon. This was a unique experience so for Dad Dialogue as it was the first episode recorded while the guest was parenting at the same time! I was impressed with how chilled his daughter was and the lack of interruption! In the episode we dive into various topics such as being a stay at home dad, the strong emotions of early fatherhood, the importance of communicating clear expectations with our partners and we even find ourselves talking a little about football (soccer) but quickly link it back to the world of parenting.
