DILF (Dad I'd Like To Friend)

Becoming a parent is one of life’s greatest gifts, yet it can also be stressful, exhausting, and extremely isolating... but YOU ARE NOT ALONE.


Consider this podcast the first step in building your parental support system, while listening to vulnerably honest stories from parents who know exactly what you’re going through. Yes, this is a parenting podcast; and while we do discuss issues that revolve around life with kids, we focus more on the life of a human... who happens to be a parent, and how to balance the multitude of hats we wear on a daily basis while attempting to be the best version of ourselves for our partner, our children, and our own personal well-being.


// DILF is part of a nonprofit community focused on improving the mental health of dads around the world with a podcast that has broken onto Apple's Top Parenting Podcast charts across the globe, while hitting #6 on the US charts :: To learn more, visit DadIdLikeToFriend.com + to join in on the conversation, find us on Instagram @DILFpodcast //
