Conversations Dads Should Have But Often Don’t

Fatherhood isn't just a phase; it's an evolving role with numerous layers and dimensions. As fathers, you set the bar for what your children come to expect from the world and themselves. Your words and actions guide them, serving as the yardstick against which they measure their worth and understand their environment. Yet, there are conversations many fathers steer clear of, avoiding the choppy waters of taboo subjects. But these conversations are essential. They not only deepen your relationship with your children but also provide them with the wisdom and tools they'll need to navigate life's complexities. Emotional Vulnerability The word 'vulnerability' is often seen as antithetical to strength and confidence. Yet, true leadership involves showing your human side. Opening up about your fears, concerns, and life experiences makes you…

Understanding and Managing Hair Loss

Hair loss is a common concern that can impact individuals of all ages and genders. Whether caused by genetic factors, hormonal changes, or underlying health conditions, understanding and managing hair loss requires a comprehensive approach.

Hibi – manage, coordinate & navigate your child’s care

At Hibi, we’re on a mission to ensure that every family caring for a child has the support they need. I’m Sam, a cofounder at Hibi, living in London in the UK. I grew up with family and friends caring for children, including my mum who is an occupational therapist. I’ve worked for years for a charity in London supporting children with developmental conditions, particularly autism. What I was seeing was that behind every child, there is a family at home working to manage, coordinate and navigate care. Parents have to manage, store & share huge amounts of information, including medications, documents, appointments, symptoms and more.

So yeah, that happened

For the last few days, the boys and I were in Tennessee, on vacation with my entire family. We all had a really good time but two days before we were supposed to leave to come home, Emmett broke his arm in a tubing accident. I posted the video below on IG briefly explaining what happened. https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cxi8qBPRe-N/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== The whole event was pretty awful. Emmett was miserable and on overload from everything that was going on. Long story short, he was so brave and handled himself so well. I couldn’t be prouder of him. Emmett’s okay and managed to avoid surgery. I felt it was best to get him home ASAP, so we left a day early. Emmett and I made a few stops on the way home. Elliott and Gavin…
