I asked my husband Rob to share his experience of becoming a dad and we compare the expectations society puts on mothers and fathers.
We cover:
💚 Some of the joys and challenges of fatherhood
💕 What it's like to bond with your new baby when you work outside the home
🧐 The expectations society puts on mothers compared to fathers. When's the last time you heard a mother being praised for being "involved" or changing a diaper?
🧱 the concept of maternal gatekeeping
📺 How what we see portrayed in the media and online can become our default if we aren't intentional in our parenting choices.
I hope this episode can play a role in expanding and elevating the narratives of fatherhood and look forward to chatting to more dads on the show!
