"...show up in every moment, and create an environment where you can show up in the moment. And if substances of any sort, or story are keeping you from the moment, then get that shit outta here!"
Welcome to episode #4 of Rethinking Dad. This episode, Michael shares how he is driven by a quest for clarity and fixing his shit. This quest is all about walking away from substances, like alcohol for the next 90 days.
As Rethinking Dads, Kevin and Michael reflect on the profound impact this choice will have as Michael aims for heightened presence. The episode starts with a meandering story that starts on the streets of Morocco and explores Oliver Anthony's quick fame and a resolution about clarity that occured while hiking in Mexico.
Together, Kevin and Michael, dive into the accountability aspect of Michael's decision and how Kevin has done similar periods in his past.
As we've said, being a Rethinking Dad starts by looking at ourselves and being willing to fix our shit. The role of Dad is important to our children, our partners and our entire family. While this decision might not be right for you, remember that we are never here to preach or judge, but only to share and create the same space for you to share and ponder.
