Welcome back to another episode of Dad Mind Matters, the podcast that's here to help dads navigate the rollercoaster ride of parenthood with humour, insight, and a healthy dose of dad jokes.

I'm your host, James, and I'm thrilled to have you join me again for another week of dad-related activities.

Whether you're a seasoned dad, a new dad-to-be, or just someone who appreciates a good dad joke, this podcast is for you.

Each week, we tackle the joys, challenges, and everything in between of fatherhood, offering practical advice, heartfelt stories, and, of course, plenty of laughs along the way.

We cover everything from diaper disasters to teenage tantrums, from bedtime battles to proud parenting moments.

So grab a cup of coffee, settle into your favourite dad chair, and get ready to explore the wonderful, wild world of dadhood with Dad Mind Matters.

And hey, if you've got a dad joke you're dying to share or a parenting topic you want us to discuss, we're all ears.

Don't hesitate to reach out through our website at www.DadMindMatters.com. After all, in the world of parenting, laughter truly is the best medicine.

Thanks for tuning in, and let's dive into another episode of Dad Mind Matters!

CAN YOU HELP THE PODCAST?

Dear Podcast Listener, thank you, I appreciate your support. This podcast aims to support dads all over the world, especially those struggling with their mental health.

This podcast is my hobby, but I'd like it to become much more than that one day. For that to happen, I need the support of either one very wealthy angel investor or a few thousand, possibly slightly less wealthy (but no less generous) angel investors.

To develop the podcast and hopefully support more dads, I need some help. With that in mind, if you enjoyed this episode and want to help me with what I'm trying to do,

here is the link where you can leave a tip.

ALL tips, regardless of size, are hugely appreciated, and as a thank you, anyone who leaves a tip will be entitled to a voice note message from me on their next birthday.

Just contact me via the website

Thanks again for your support, and take care of yourself

ABOUT ME

Hello, I'm James & not long ago, I was a very anxious and somewhat overwhelmed husband & dad.

After about a decade of setbacks & enough coffee to sink a ship, I’m a much happier dad.

As previously mentioned, I want to try & help other dads be the best they can without losing their mental health.

Mental health battles are something I am all too familiar with.

In 2010, my GP suggested I do a 12-week CBT course with the NHS. During this course, I was diagnosed as having Pure OCD, which explained a lot.
