Show Notes
No matter how much you prepare, nothing quite compares to the moment you become a parent.
In this Father's Day episode, we'll explore Adam's journey into fatherhood—the excitement, uncertainty, identity shift and the unexpected realities of those first few months. We'll also discuss his podcast *The Dads and the Docs*, why honest conversations between dads matter, and what he's learnt since welcoming his daughter.
The conversation is designed to reassure new and expecting parents that there's no perfect way to become a dad, only your own.
A big thank you to our episode sponsor RedBalloon.
