  • Summary

  • Happy new year! In the spirit of renewal, I wanted to give you something to challenge your notions of fatherhood by sharing a talk with someone you probably don't often think to ask "what makes you a father"?

    In this talk, I am joined by Dr. Samaad Keys (check out A Sip with Samaad), who along with his husband, are exploring becoming fathers via surrogacy. It's a process I knew nothing about, and it made me ask the question "why are you choosing to become fathers?".   His answers will teach you a lot about what it takes to be a man, a father, and a leader.  

    We cover:

    • Why they chose to pursue becoming fathers?
    • What does fatherhood represents to him?
    • Why don't more gay men pursue fatherhood?
    • How he and his husband think about teaching their kids about masculinity.
    • How fathers can create safety for their kids to communicate (and the dangers of not providing that safety).

    Open your mind and give a listen. I am convinced that there is a lot of learning from people who actively choose to be a fathers.
