Fatherhood can be a time in life that we may not consider to be a transition, yet it is one of the top major shifts in a man’s life. With this transition, comes a measure of the fear of the unknown, wondering if you are prepared emotionally, and how will I care and provide for this new life that is coming into this world.A lot rests on the shoulders of a father.If you are a new father, thinking about becoming a father, or a seasoned father, you will enjoy this episode.The nature of impending fatherhood is that you are doing something that you’re unqualified to do and then you become qualified while doing it. In this episode, Sam Miller and Tom Ashton share their fatherhood stories from the moments their wives shared the good news of their first pregnancy to what they have learned on their journey of becoming a new father.I was touched by their transparency and candor as they opened up about their struggles, challenges and the responsibility of becoming a father, which has ultimately made them each a better man. In other words, it has been the best thing that ever happened to them.“A daughter needs a father to be the standard against which she will judge all men.”“Behind every young boy who believes in himself, is a father who believed in him first.”“I cannot think of any need in a childhood as strong as a need for a father’s protection.” Sigmund Freud CONNECT WITH DEBIE-mail – [email protected] - contact me if you would like to be a guestWebsite – www.debironca.comInstagram - @debironcaLinkedin – linkedin.com/in/debironcaFacebook – @authordebironcaFree Transition Assessment – do you wonder if you are in transition?

In times of transition, this can become a difficult hurdle to jump as decisions need to be made, and perfectionism will prevent us making those necessary choices as we process our transition.Valerie Cantella, shares so beautifully her journey of becoming a recovering perfectionist and share her wisdom and insight to help you walk this path and become victorious. There is hope!Connect with Valerie! She has a heart to serve and has the heart that understands.
