Lessons From My Father: Alex’s Journey to Becoming the Dad He Needed

In this heartfelt episode of 15 Minutes with Dad, we sit down with Alex, a respected community father who reflects on his journey from son to father—and the powerful transformation that came from confronting his own relationship with his dad.

Through stories filled with honesty, love, and hard-earned wisdom, Alex shares how the lessons he learned (and sometimes didn’t learn) from his own father became the blueprint for how he parents his own children today.

🎯 In this episode, you’ll hear:

• How childhood moments shaped Alex’s definition of fatherhood legacy
