Ned sits down with Joey Hahn, a former Navy SEAL and father of four boys. Joey shares his unique perspective on fatherhood, shaped by his challenging upbringing in foster care and his intense military career. He gets into the concept of fatherhood as both a duty and a choice, emphasizing the importance of working oneself out of a job as a parent. Joey discusses the delicate balance between being a strong protector and a gentle, approachable figure for his children. He also reflects on the significance of allowing children to navigate their conflicts independently, fostering resilience and problem-solving skills. This episode offers valuable insights for fathers striving to be both strong and emotionally available, preparing their children for the challenges of life.
