Welcome to a new episode of The Dad Up Podcast. Iโm excited to share this episode.
โจ
Meet Dane Palarino, an accomplished entrepreneur and founder of Palarino Partners , a leading headhunting firm in the
highly competitive software industry.
โจ
With a profound passion for scaling businesses through strategic talent acquisition, his mission centers on connecting top talent with companies poised for growth and
innovation.
โจ
A few years ago, at the age
of 41, Dane faced a personal and health crossroads.
โจ
After the birth of his second child and five years into his marriage, he felt unhealthy, lacked confidence, and was unmotivated.
โจ
Uncomfortable in his own skin,
he felt old and tired, struggling to meet the demands of his family and career.
โจ
Determined to turn his life around, Dane embarked on a transformative three-year journey, during which he reduced his body fat from 30% to 6% and significantly increased his muscle mass.
โจ
This transformation went beyond physical changes, helping him reclaim his confidence.
โจ
He adopted a hypertrophy-style training regimen and macro-based nutrition, which proved ideal for men over 35.
โจ
The challenging, yet rewarding process inspired Dane to start an online coaching business aimed at helping other men over 35 balance
their overall health, professional lives, and personal lives combined.
โจ
Please check it out and show Dane some love by following him and reaching out to him if youโre looking to get rid of that dad bod.

NEW EPISODE RELEASEDClick the links below or in the show notes!Welcome to a new episode of The Dad Up Podcast. Iโm excited to share another episode with this guest to have a tough conversation about the struggles his son will soon face.Dr. Steve Johnston is an MD/MBA with a vast understanding of the healthcare system, coupled with real-world experience in building companies, leading teams, & solving complex challenges.His son, Luke, has a rare genetic condition and is slowly going blind. Upon receiving the diagnosis that his son was going blind, nothing has been more important to Steve than championing the mission of A Race Against Blindness: support research & find a cure for retinitis pigmentosa caused by Bardet-Biedel Syndrome.This rare disease known as Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (BBS) is one of many genetic conditions that can cause RP/blindness in young children.His son, Luke, is actively going blind. Thus, the birth of A Race Against Blindness organization.Steve & his wife, Kristina, founded the nonprofit called A Race Against Blindness.But that really only scratches the surface in terms of their motivation. Since learning of Lukeโs diagnosis , Steve & Kristina have become strongly connected to the rare-diseases community.While rare diseases are actually not unusual, with more than 7,000 diseases classified by the FDA as rare, each one individually often affects only a small number of people.Thus many rare diseases donโt receive enough resources to fund research for treatments or possible cures.Steve & Kristina are deeply dedicated to their mission, & their commitment is what will lead them to success.If you would like to learn more about this story, or would like to donate to the cause, please see their website link below or in the show notes.Dad Up!Dad Up Instagram:https://instagram.com/daduppodcastDad Up YouTube:https://youtube.com/c/DadUpPodcastDad Up Apple Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dad-up-podcast/id1486764562Dad Up LinkTree:https://linktr.ee/DaduptribeSteve Johnston Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/dad.vs.blindnessKristina Johnston Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/mom.vs.blindnessNonprofit Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/a.race.against.blindnessNonprofit Website:A Race Against Blindness - Nonprofit funding sight-saving researchNonprofit Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/a.race.against.blindness?mibextid=LQQJ4dNonprofit LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/a-race-against-blindness/--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/daduppodcast/support

NEW EPISODE RELEASEDClick the links below or in the show notes!Welcome to a new episode of The Dad Up Podcast. Iโm excited to share another episode of Parenting Pep Talk.In today's episode, I want to share a question I received from a fan of the show.So I thought we could dive into the topic of building a deep connection with your teenager.As parents, it is crucial to maintain a strong bond with our teenagers, as this connection plays a vital role in their emotional well-being, development, and overall happiness. So, let's jump right in!Segment 1: Understanding the Teenage MindDuring adolescence, teenagers undergo significant physical, emotional, and cognitive changes. They are exploring their identities, seeking independence, and experiencing intense emotions. Understand these emotions.Segment 2: Active Listening and Effective CommunicationImportant to Practice genuine interest in their lives, thoughts, and concerns. Encourage open and honest communication by creating a safe and non-judgmental space. Avoid interrupting or dismissing their feelings, and instead, validate their experiences.Segment 3: Quality Time and Shared ActivitiesSpending quality time with your teenager can strengthen your bond and create lasting memories. Find activities that you both enjoy and make time for them regularly.Segment 4: Respect and TrustBuilding a deep connection requires mutual respect and trust. Respect your teenager's opinions, even if you disagree. Involve them in decision-making processes and show that their input is valued. Avoid excessive control or micromanagement, as it can hinder the development of trust.Segment 5: Empathy and Emotional SupportAdolescence can be a challenging time emotionally. Show empathy and provide emotional support for your teenager.Validate their feelings, offer guidance, and help them navigate through difficult situations. Safe to come to you.Building a deep connection with your teenager is a journey that requires patience, understanding, and effort. By practicing active listening, effective communication, spending quality time, and providing emotional support, you can create a strong and lasting bond with your teenager. Remember, the teenage years are a precious time for growth and self-discovery, and your role as a parent is crucial in helping them navigate this transformative stage of life.Dad Up!Dad Up Instagram:https://instagram.com/daduppodcastDad Up YouTube:https://youtube.com/c/DadUpPodcastDad Up Apple Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dad-up-podcast/id1486764562Dad Up LinkTree:https://linktr.ee/Daduptribe--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/daduppodcast/support
