Are you a new dad feeling overwhelmed and unsure of where to turn for support?

Today, we’re diving into the inspiring story of Tyler Kort and his creation, Fathercy, a business and social media platform designed to support dads. Tyler's initiative aims to encourage, equip, and educate fathers as they navigate the complex journey of parenting.

Tyler’s journey into fatherhood began with his daughter and is now expanding with a soon-to-arrive son. His experiences led him to create Fathercy, a resource that offers valuable tools and a supportive community for dads everywhere.

Tyler shared the poignant moment when his wife’s birth plan changed unexpectedly due to his daughter being in a breech position, necessitating a C-section. This sudden twist pushed Tyler into a more active role in the birthing process, from undergoing the excitement of labor to managing the realities of a C-section recovery. He emphasized the importance of having a doula for support, not just for his wife but also for himself as he navigated these unfamiliar waters.

Postpartum challenges are often discussed concerning mothers, but Tyler opened up about his own struggles as a new dad. He discussed the emotional toll of feeling overwhelmed and questioning his capabilities. Initially, Tyler, like many fathers, chose to suffer in silence rather than burden his already recovering wife.
