062: Dad's Mental Health Matters Too! with Eli Weinstein (Feature on Fathers Series No. 1)

So we just ended our month-long series for Motherhood and now, I want to give you another series that will focus on fatherhood & feature some amazing dads! The parenting world is filled with the voices and perspectives of mothers and while I love having space where our voices are prioritized, I also think it can contribute to the idea of the mom being the "default" parent or the one who is responsible for doing the research and learning associated with parenting. But what the research actually shows is that dads play a unique and important role in kids' lives and that kids in families with both a mom and a dad do BETTER when their dad is actively involved in the day-to-day tasks of parenting.And for the first episode, I'm bringing in a friend and colleague, Eli Weinstein. He is a dad, a coach, and the host of The Dude Therapist Podcast which aims to give men and women alike a safe space for them to grow. He will help us learn and be aware that Dads' mental health is also important.Follow him on Instagram @eliweinstein_lcsw and visit his website www.elivation.org.
