It’s no secret that the world treats men and women very differently… and the same goes for moms and dads; however, truly comprehending what it’s like for the opposite sex is no easy task. Kevin welcomes Nick North, a trans man with the rare experience of living life as both dad and mom. After giving birth to four children, Nick decided that he was tired of living a lie and began his journey transitioning to Dad.
His journey is not only fascinating but an eye-opening lesson in the realities of gender bias that most of us face on a daily basis. So much more than a trans story, this is Nick North's tale of bravery — an eye-opening interview that proves that the formula for being an amazing parent is simply living your truth while continuing to show up each and every day... with love.

But what's selfish about finding a moment for yourself from time to time? What if a task as easy as starting a list of potential hobbies to pursue was the answer to opening your world to more joy, more energy, and more possibilities...

In this DILF REPLAY, we revisit where it all began with an episode celebrating ALL that unites us as parents... if we allow ourselves a moment to see things from a fresh perspective.
