Many dads struggle to navigate the challenges of fatherhood and seek practical advice for raising confident and successful kids.

Rather than be swayed by the “noise” that’s rampant in our world, our goal is to give dads tangible tools and insights that will help them become better parents and create strong, meaningful relationships with their children.

Getting down to business, this is The Dad Central Show where hosts Ed Gough Jr. and Drew Soleyn have a conversation with Patrick Cloutier, a French Canadian living in South Korea. He’s the creator of daddysimply.com, a blog and website dedicated to helping dads achieve personal growth, wellness and fun. 

Top takeaways:

– Setting a positive example: He highlights the significance of self-improvement, exercise, and setting a positive example for children.

– Embracing fatherhood: Patrick shares his reflections on the simplicity and joy of fatherhood and the unexpected ways it has positively impacted his life.

This episode will give you valuable insights on how to approach self-improvement, set a positive example, and embrace the joy of fatherhood. The practical advice shared by Patrick Cloutier will resonate with any dad who is looking to improve their parenting skills and build deeper connections with their children.

We appreciate all of you who tune in every week to support the show. If you found this episode valuable, please take a moment to review, like, and share it with other dads who could benefit from these conversations.

To leave you with something to ponder, Patrick reminds us, “What can I do to improve?” Take a moment to reflect on this question and consider how you can implement positive changes in your parenting journey.
