Better for the Boy
Better for the Boy is an honest and raw look at personal growth. Before becoming a parent, I didn't care much about being "good" - I didn't have a higher power to answer to, and no clear sense of purpose. But having a child changed everything for me. In this series, I share my personal journey towards self-improvement, with all the ups and downs that come along with it. From big wins to embarrassing mistakes, and everything in between, I'm bringing you real stories, real wisdom, and yes, even some WTF moments. Tune in to join me on this rollercoaster ride towards becoming a better person.
