After six cups of java, I jumped on a podcast with my amazing wife, and we dove deep into why parenting is never easy, why we sometimes pour from an empty cup, how struggles have made our marriage stronger, and what’s really causing parental burnout. I hope this encourages parents to see that being tired is, in fact, a badge of honor.Subscribe to my weekly reflections on SubstackFollow The Tired Dad on InstagramFollow The Tired Mom on InstagramSubscibe to Youtube Follow on TikTokFollow on FacebookEnter code: tireddadpod for 15% off at tireddad.comFor partnerships, email collabs@tireddad.com
