Why Reinventing Dad?

Why didn’t I call this blog Reinventing Fatherhood or Reinventing Parenthood?  Because it goes beyond the parenting aspect and it makes for a long URL.  It's about identity and what it means to be called "Dad" by a three-foot human being who is looking straight up into your eyes. 

Now, when I had originally created the Substack account, my focus was on the Dad part of the of the Reinventing Dad, and then I came to realize that the real purpose, the real message I had to disseminate was the reinvention process.

I will always be “Dad” to my little one(s).

What keeps you up at night?

Being "Dad" means asking yourself the following when you put your kid to sleep:

  • How am I going to do this for the next 25 years?

  • How do I ensure my kid gets the best education possible?

  • How do I keep my kid safe when I can't be there?

  • How do I make rent every month if I don't have a job or I expect to lose my job?

  • How do I explain to my spouse/partner that my above-average salary isn’t going to continue all the way to retirement?

  • What’s going to happen when Artificial Intelligence renders most paper-pushing office jobs completely obsolete?

What you get out of being a member of this community.

You get the behind-the-scenes look at the entire reinvention process, from how I address my fears of moving from employment income to solopreneurship, the headaches I faced with simple things like opening a corporate bank account, how I stumbled across an AI Logo website that gave me more than what I had originally imagined all the way through to the day I leave the corporate world forever.
