In this episode, Paul and Andrew dive into a thought-provoking clip from a popular parenting influencer, where the idea that parents shouldn’t teach their kids "what" to learn, but instead create an environment where they can discover "what they want to learn," is explored. This leads to a deep discussion about the role of fathers in guiding their children. Should we just get out of the way and let kids figure it all out, or is there a balance between giving them autonomy and imparting essential life lessons?

Whether you're a father, aspiring dad, or simply contemplating what it means to raise children in today’s unpredictable world, this episode offers insightful perspectives on being the best version of yourself as a parent. Don't miss out on this candid conversation about growth, wisdom, and the fine art of letting go.
