125: A Father's Journey Through Love, Loss, and Legacy w/Tim Campbell
Description
In this week’s episode of the Fatherhood Fitness Podcast, Anthony sits down with Tim Campbell, author of the upcoming memoir Holding Up the Sky: Intergenerational Lessons of Fatherhood.
At 82 years old, Tim reflects on four decades of raising three children, two with disabilities, and the personal and emotional lessons that shaped him as a father, husband, and man.
They dive into:
What it means to rewrite the legacy we inherit from our fathers
Balancing strength and vulnerability as a dad
Parenting through medical crises, disability, and deep uncertainty
How travel and career impacted his role at home
The evolving meaning of masculinity and modern fatherhood
And why connection, not control, may be the key to leading your family well
Tim also shares the emotional story behind the book’s title, his imaginary conversation with his late father, and the decades-long journey of writing a book filled with heartbreak, humor, and hope.
