Becoming the Father I Never Had

  • Summary

  • What happens when a man chooses to rewrite his story?

    In this episode of Brave Men Dare, guest co-host, Joe Young, joins Craig for a deeply honest conversation about growing up with an absent father, breaking generational cycles, and learning what it really means to show up as a man, husband, and dad.

    Joe shares personal stories about:

    • His father’s time as a POW in WWII

    • Growing up in a chaotic, loving household as the youngest of seven

    • Becoming a father later in life—and the fear that came with it

    • What he's learned in 26 years of marriage

    • Letting go of being the “passive dad” and becoming more present

    • His own inner programming and how he's still unpacking it at 60

    • And, of course, Green Bay vs Detroit and the Power Rangers Rash Guard 😂

    Whether you're a dad, son, or just a man navigating life—this episode will make you think, reflect, and maybe even soften a bit.

    🎧 Listen in and join us for a conversation that covers war, wisdom, parenting, jiu-jitsu, marriage, and what really matters in life.
