When you have a kid, a lot of things change! Your house flips (for the good), your thoughts, ideas, and beliefs may shift. Your biology changes (Like we talked about a few weeks ago). But.. What happens when you change? Change is inevitable, right? You spent your whole life making who you are. It doesn't feel right to just forget everything you were and be a new man, does it?
We discuss changes in your mindset and actions after you have children. Our thoughts, stories, ideas, and other things to hopefully get you thinking. Change is good, but never forget who you are.

Urban Dictionary defines the "Social Media Dad" as: "When a father is only in their child's life on social media and not in the real world. Posting pictures of his kids that his baby mama had to send to him because he never sees them." (Webster apparently doesn't notice this as a real definition. Whatever Webster....Nerd)
Dave and Ryan share their thoughts on that definition and what it really means to be a Social Media Dad. There are so many great dads out there today, sharing their stories, thoughts, fears, emotions to better dads and do great things out in the interwebs! Being a Social Media Dad is more than kid photos and Snapchat. It's about being there. Guiding and dad jokes. (New Balance on fleek amirite?)
We had the great honor of talking to so many dads since this podcast dropped. We wanted to give back to a great community and share a few of them right here! be sure to drop them a like and follow. Send a what's up, and just a simple thank you for being kick-ass dads. (There were too many to choose, this is not a definitive list)

You know that tingling, uneasy feeling you get after having a kid? No, it's not touching yourself, it's the one where you feel weak, emotional, just "not right"? Well, that's NORMAL! Having a kid is a BIG change in every parent's life. Mother goes through the biggest of these changes *you know forming the kid and all*, but you have biological changes in you as well.
It's reported that about 26% of new fathers have testosterone drops after having a kid. We talk about its science, thoughts, and things Dave and Ryan have gone through with this newfound information!

Today, we're digging deep into actually being there for your children. The world has shifted, and we need to as well. We work to put food on the table. We drag ourselves with busted knees, and bloody fingers to sacrifice ourselves for our family. That's what we have been conditioned to do. That's what we are told we have to do!
That's just far from the truth.
When we finally are home, and with our family, we are absent. We decompress, we think about what's going to happen, or what already happened. We forget to just enjoy the now. The moments we are building for not just our children, but for ourselves.
This is a deep episode, to remind you to take a breath. Know that what you're doing is still good. Know that it's a time to shift through. The shift from being a zombie in life to being present. We challenge you today to really think and get uncomfortable.

We've all seen the memes on social media. The nine-box lawful, neutral chaotic charts about x,y,z. They give us a laugh, and we find ourselves in them. They are normally used for Dungeons and Dragons character development, but today we're using them for parenthood.
The joy of having a toddler is purely chaotic...but in a good way.
Dave and Ryan discuss the alignment chart, and how it relates to your days as a dad? Are you Lawful neutral? Neutral Chaotic? Totally Neutral (Not buying that!).

Today, Dave and Ryan are talking about the stigma of guy’s crying.
This has been a long time stigma of guys not being allowed to truly express themselves. We are perceived as weak, unmanly and not strong enough. We are breaking that today.

We hope you, our Fearless Family had a great weekend!
Today on the Fearless Fathers Podcast, Dave O shares his thoughts on Persistence and what that word means in fatherhood. He goes over the good and bad of the word, why it's one of the best tools to have, and not allowing others to halt you.
When being persistent, it's easy to fall short of a goal. The road gets tough, it's harder to move. When you get overwhelmed by a goal, it just means you have a lack of clarity. Don't stop when you are three feet from victory. We teach our kids to be persistent in life. Make sure to practice what you preach.
Go into this week with a clear goal, a clear mind, and ready to tackle what comes. With our persistence mixed with desire and passion, we overcome everything.
If you haven't already, be sure to join our Facebook Group.
Follow us on Twitch! Enjoy some gaming time and watching Dave O die pretty regularly.
