Description

A podcast series discussing the themes of fatherlessness. This podcast acts as a collection of conversations by a variety of guests and myself, a 25-year-old raised by a single mother, sharing insights that would have been gold dust for my younger self. Fatherless homes are on the rise, and while I know my podcast won’t be the solution, my prayer is that anyone journeying through the complexities of a fatherless life will find hope in the stories of the people I’ll be interviewing.

For many, Father's Day can often be confusing or difficult to process. How can you celebrate your dad if he wasn't around? Maybe he passed away or walked out on your family. Perhaps he was physically present, but failed to fulfil the role of a father in your life... Jordan & Tom discuss how Father's Day can evolve from being a day that many often avoid - to becoming an opportunity to celebrate fatherhood and appreciate those who have stepped in as role models, mentors, and father figures. Tom opens up about his dad suddenly passing away when he was just 8 years old, watching his mother raise 5 kids as a solo parent, and how Father's Day has evolved for him.We pray this conversation reaches those who need to hear it today.
