🎙 Episode: #3 - Sis Has Thoughts: Women on the Dad Beat

In this special Sunday episode, I sit down with our dear family friend Daisy to explore fatherhood from a different angle—not from the seat of a father, but from the heart of someone who’s been beside us, loving us, supporting us, and witnessing our journey as two dads raising boys.

Daisy brings the kind of insight only a woman can—nurturing, reflective, and unflinchingly honest. She speaks to the quiet power of emotional labor, the role of women in shaping family systems, and what it means to show up for fathers as they show up for their kids.

In this conversation:

• The gift of proximity: watching fatherhood unfold from the inside out

• Why women often see what fathers miss—and why that matters

• How chosen family and allyship strengthen LGBTQ+ parenting

• The balance of softness and strength in raising children today

Daisy offers a voice filled with warmth, clarity, and experience. Her perspective reminds us that fatherhood doesn’t exist in a vacuum—it’s enriched, challenged, and elevated by the women who walk with us.

This one’s about the village, the wisdom of women, and the power of showing up.

🎙 Episode: #2 - Adoption Chronicles: It’s Giving Destiny

In this episode, I sit down with my husband, Nicholas (Instagram: @nicnick), to have an open and honest conversation about fatherhood from our unique perspective as an interracial LGBTQ+ couple. We ask and answer some of the biggest questions we’ve faced on this journey, including:

• How do you know you’re ready to be a dad?

• How do we navigate adoption as an interracial LGBTQ+ couple?

• How do we teach our child about diversity and acceptance?

From personal reflections to practical insights, this discussion is all about love, intentionality, and the lessons we’re learning as parents. Whether you’re a father, hoping to be one, or just curious about different perspectives on parenting, this episode is for you.

🎧 Tune in and let’s keep the conversation going!
