Description

From being a bison meat salesman and a chef/ restaurant owner, Jordan pursued his interest in psychology in graduate school and became an established author. As he was promoting his first parenting book "The New Childhood", he noticed a great marginalization of fathers in the area of parenting, which he associated with misogyny, a subject he thought should have been called out hundreds of years ago. This was the genesis of the book he recently launched, "Father Figure".

With this radical and subversive book, this feminist dad advocates that it is about time men start owning the word feminism. Because unlike most misconceptions that feminism is a movement to cancel men, his research made him redefine the term as "a commitment to ending oppression, subjugation, inequality, and exploitation that's based on gender".

In this exciting episode, he will define the term he coined "narcissistic patriarchal authority";  justify why "Father knows best" is a myth; and, more importantly, guide men to navigate feminism as the best way to become a dad in the ethos of a borderless, highly connected world.
