In this super interesting conversation, Jerry shares how raising 4 daughters and being the lone male in his house has helped him rethink (and reframe as he puts it) the conversation and thoughts surrounding sex.

He shares his experience of growing up in a highly religious household where sex was shamed and how he wanted to break that cycle with his own children. Jerry emphasizes the need for open communication and empowerment when discussing sex with children, starting from a young age.

Michael and Kevin reflect on their own experiences and the generational challenges they face in rethinking the conversation around sex. Kevin, Michael, and Jerry discuss their experiences and approaches to talking about sex and relationships with their children.

They explore the importance of creating a safe and open environment for these conversations, free from shame and judgment.

This awesome conversation highlights the need for parents to work through their own beliefs and biases in order to have meaningful and supportive conversations with their children.

In this special bonus episode of Rethinking Dads, Kevin and Michael recorded their conversation while Michael was taking Kevin to the airport.

This conversation actually started a couple of days prior when family and friends all gathered at Kevin's house for a discussion on life, manifestation, gratitude and raising our vibration and frequency.

We all get stuck dealing with the hamster wheel of life. There's no doubt our days get crazy and we fall into ruts and lose sight of what's important. What we tried to do with this episode, and our personal conversations lately, is bring the most important things back into focus.

Bring back into focus our desire to bring about abundance, support, love, time and all the joys in life we believe are inherent to all of us.

We hope you enjoy and thanks for listening!
