Description

Navigating divorce as a dad isn’t just about surviving court dates and custody calendars—it’s about healing, self-discovery, and, yes, even finding moments to laugh. On this episode of Parenting 411, Dr. David Webb gets real about the messy grace of fatherhood after divorce. From the chaos of “week-on, week-off” parenting to overcoming anger and building joyful new traditions with his kids, Dr. Webb shares wisdom, humor, and that all-important message: love your kids more than you hate your ex. Tune in as David and I dig into why dads today are more involved than ever, why forgiveness is a game-changer, and how even the hardest seasons can give dads hope for an even brighter future—one filled with UNO games at 3 a.m., Christmas Eve pizza parties, and the freedom to start new chapters.
