Heart Full, Mind Heavy

Dad Diaries

Alex and Debs Season 1 Episode 10

In this episode of Heart Full, Mind Heavy, we’re switching perspectives and stepping into Dad mode.

We sit down with Will Rye, who shares his journey from entrepreneurship to fatherhood, and what it’s really like to navigate the messy, magical, and often overwhelming world of parenting from the other side of the fence.

We talk about how becoming a dad changed his priorities, the mental load men carry but often don’t talk about, and the unexpected challenges that came with balancing business, identity, and family life.

From sleepless nights to moments of joy (and a few honest confessions), this conversation is a refreshing look into fatherhood, mental health, and the pressures dads face but often keep quiet.

Whether you’re a mum wanting to understand your partner’s experience, a dad figuring it out, or someone curious about the reality behind the “provider” role, this episode is for you.
