Hey guys, welcome back to the dad's tired podcast. One of the greatest gifts you can give your

family is the ability to be self-aware to the best of your ability, to be able to say,

to look in the mirror and to say, man, are there areas in my life where I'm falling short

where I know that I need to grow as a husband and as a father to address certain topics in

your life that are probably hard and scary to address.

I just finished a new book that addresses some of these big questions about fatherhood,

including issues that most guys are thinking about,

but probably are afraid to ask.

This is the kind of stuff that you're not going to hear preached on a Sunday morning,

and you maybe won't even hear it discussed in your men's accountability group.

And so it covers everything from how to maintain intimacy with your wife after pregnancy to dealing with your anger and all the other

important issues that all of us as guys are facing. If you have questions about how to be a better

dad, if you're like, man, how can I be self-aware? How can I look in the mirror and say,

God, where do you want me to grow?

I mean, you've got questions that you really want answered, but you are just afraid to ask them

or you don't know where to ask them or process them. I highly recommend that you pick up a copy

of the dad tired Q&A mixtape book. And I also recommend that you go through it with some friends.

There are discussion questions at the end of each chapter, which are going to help you unpack some of this stuff that may be buried deep inside of you. You can get it wherever

books are sold or you can go to dadtired.com to learn more. With that being said, let's dive

into today's episode. I am so excited for today's episode. Today I have in person, normally we do our

interviews via video, but today I have my pastor, Caleb. Dude, it's kind of weird saying that,

to be honest. Yeah, because you've been in leadership for so long yeah before we jump
