#7 How are you showing up as a father - Watene Waegna
Show Notes

Watene is a devoted dad, a man that stepped into father hood at the age of 17. Widely recognized as a leader in the space of mental health and self awareness, we go deep on the topic of parenting and how his children have been his biggest teacher. He openly shares how he is constantly having to navigate the old stories we play of parenting we most know. We share the importance of choosing to have fun during your children's activities rather than viewing is as a chore. The 'why' as parent's it's crucial we lower our eyes and let go of the need for the generational "my way or the highway' rules of engagement approach. Touching on the benefit of being a parent with a growth mindset and level of self awareness, while actively modeling this for your children is so important for development and social conditioning.
