The Darkest Moment of My Fatherhood Journey | How I Found Strength in the Struggle

In this episode of Friday Fuel, I open up about one of the darkest moments of my fatherhood journey.

A night back in April 2020 when the pressure of being a new dad during COVID nearly broke me. From the brink of despair to rediscovering my purpose, this raw and powerful story sheds light on the emotional weight many of us carry silently.

🎯 If you’ve ever felt lost, overwhelmed, or like you’re failing at being a dad, this episode is for you. I share how pain, masculinity, vulnerability, and personal growth collide during the early days of fatherhood, and how as men we can find strength, identity, and leadership through it all.

✊ Topics covered: The hidden emotional toll of early fatherhood

Masculinity, purpose, and pressure in the home
