The hardest part of fatherhood isn’t loving your child. It’s missing them before they’ve even left.

Some fathers are grieving time, not people.

The greatest gift of fatherhood is time.

I was born to be a father. Loved raising all my sons and nephews. 

Co-parenting is the new norm. 

I am very good a it. 
I am present. 
I am attentive. 
I am supportive. 
I am loving. 
I am also learning how to become better. 

A better Father. 
A better son. 
a better H.U.M.A.N.

First of all, this is all on me. I am the full cause of why I am here. I take 100% responsibility for the demise of my decade long marriage. My childhood trauma played a huge role in it as well. I will regret it for the rest of my life. 

No one tells you how tough this will be. There is no blueprint. No manual. No book. My tribe. My therapy. My Somatic breathing techniques. Nothing stops these tsunami size waves that come with this experience. 

Quiet days are the enemy.  Silent nights are the devil.  Grief does not have a time schedule. It wakes me up and puts me to bed sometimes. 

I was triggered by my son’s toothbrush and how we brush our teeth together. Today we didn’t and that sent me down a rabbit hole. 

Men feel too. We feel as deeply as everyone else. My prayer rug is full of tears. They say 1 day at a time. The never told you it was Groundhog Day. #humanshealth #mensmentalhealth #divorcesucks by @donmega24

Men, you are not alone in what you’re carrying.

Tough seasons don’t mean stop. Keep showing up. Keep leading. Keep fighting for the man you’re becoming.

And while you’re pushing through your own battles, check on your brothers too.

We are built for this.

Men, you do not have to see the whole road to keep moving.

Sometimes faith is simply making the next good decision when life feels uncertain, trusting that clarity will come as you go.

Pray. Move. Adjust. Keep going.

Get active!!! 
Your body will do what you make it do. 
What you condition it to do. 
What you train it to do. 

I’m not training for Armageddon. 

I am training for my-son-a-gettin this beatdown in something or day. 

Im motivated by him to be better.

What’s your motivation?

Dad, strength is more than what you lift in the gym.

It is staying healthy enough to pick them up, carry them when they are tired, play until they are laughing, and keep showing up while they still think Dad can do anything.

One day they will be too big to carry. Make sure you are strong enough for every chance you get before then.

Men, strength does not mean pretending you are okay all the time.

Every man needs at least one brother he can be completely real with. No performance. No judgment. No pretending.

If you have that brother, appreciate him. If you do not, start becoming that brother for somebody else.

Real brotherhood makes room for honesty.

I want to thank @landri_liftsalot for being apart of this weekend at the @mrolympiallc. 

She was one of the many women who got on the bench to support the cause that affects us all.

Real financial strength is built in quiet moments like this.
Taking the call, opening the bill, facing the numbers, and making a plan is what grown man discipline looks like.
Men, do not run from the pressure. Handle it, learn from it, and keep building.

w/ @donmega24 

Thank you Don for being so vulnerable with your story. It was an absolute pleasure to speak to this man.

I walked away with so much after our talk.

Be the man your kids need. Make the changes.

Being there matters more than being perfect. Your kids may not remember every word you said, but they will remember your love, your presence, and the way you kept showing up. Dad, keep building memories that feel like home.
