It’s a lot of things we go through as husbands/fathers that don’t get recognized as often as it should. I really appreciate the pod for discussing and relating to the dilemmas we face as men in fatherhood and in marriage, even when the battle is against the person in the mirror.

I’ve been listening to Paternity Leave since episode one, and I’d like to say now that this is a podcast that everyone needs to hear. From those with kids to those hoping to have kids in the future. I truly cannot wait to see the community come together! The raw and real topics make it super relatable while not feeling bad about whatever stage we are in on our journeys!
As a new dad it’s so hard to find relatable content. I finally found paternity leave and anxiously wait for new episodes to learn more and relate to more dad feelings that I never knew about.
