I Am Dad
Are you interested in hearing and learning about the journey of fatherhood? Maybe you are just curious about the mind of a man. Are you in the proximity of a husband, boyfriend, dad, son, uncle, nephew, grandfather, or any other kind of male you just can’t seem to understand? Welcome. You have found the perfect podcast.
I AM Dad is a one-of-a-kind brand that celebrates the beauty of fatherhood and the important essence of manhood. Our intention is to give voice and relevance to the masculine side of love and life. In today’s society where so many voices are looking to be heard, the voices of dad, too, cry out. This forum is just one way to express the unique position of the voice of dad.
