What Every Dad Should Know: Lessons From Literary Legend James Patterson
James Patterson has sold 400 million books and written hundreds of stories, but the most important one he’s lived is being a dad.
In this powerful, personal, and deeply relatable episode, one of the world’s bestselling authors steps away from the writing desk and into the studio to talk about what matters most: family.
Whether you're a dad, love a dad, or are simply navigating your own relationship with a father figure, this episode offers fresh perspective and hard-earned wisdom.
With his signature mix of humor, honesty, and heart, James Patterson shares the kinds of reflections, stories, and mindset shifts that will inspire you to show up differently for the people you love, starting today.
You’ll learn:
-How to become a more present, engaged, and emotionally available father
-How to handle the unspoken pressure many dads carry and how it gets in the way of connection
-The conversations that can shift generations and how to start them now.
-What James wishes he’d done differently and what he’s proud of now
You don’t have to be a dad to take something meaningful from this conversation.
If you’ve ever struggled with what to say or how to connect, this episode will stay with you. And it just might help you start the conversation that matters most.
