MOMS ON CALL

There is a lot of talk about moms and the pressures put on them as a parent, but what about dads? This week on the podcast, we talk to the hosts of the Modern Dadhood podcast Adam Flaherty and Marc Checket and get their take on what it takes to be a dad in 2024. They talk about emotional journey a dad goes through when they first become a parent and how it can affect a relationship. Plus, do dads have the same pressure from social media to be perfect that moms get?  For more information on Modern Dadhood visit moderndadhood.com Learn more about your ad choices.

As parents, we spend so much time taking care of our kids that we rarely take time to take care of ourselves. We were introduced to Coach Dane Robinson when he started using Moms on Call for his little one and we were able to help him through those crucial first few months. Now, he is returning the favor by encouraging parents in our Moms on Call family to get moving. This week on the podcast he joins us to talk about his Moms on Call journey, the importance of parent mobility and why working out doesn't need to be intimidating. It's all about doing what you can, when you can!  As a special treat Dane has created a workout just for our Moms on Call family! They’re short enough to fit into your busy day but powerful enough to help you recharge, refocus, and feel unstoppable.
