First Hero
This is not another parenting podcast. This is a wake-up call.
For the father who refuses to settle for "good enough." The man who knows that just providing is a losing strategy in a world that is constantly fighting for his daughter's heart and mind.
The First Hero Podcast is a weekly transmission for men who are ready to stop drifting and start leading. We don't do gentle tips or surface-level parenting hacks. We build men. Through raw conversations, actionable wisdom, and the unapologetic truth, we forge fathers into the present, powerful leaders their daughters deserve.
If you don't lead her, something or someone else will. It's time to lead yourself, lead your home, and earn the one title that truly matters: Her First Hero.

Why Your Daughter Feels It When You Bring Work Home | First Hero Podcast EP004
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You spend all day managing pressure. Deadlines, decisions, conflict, responsibility.
Then you walk through the front door — and your daughter feels all of it. Not because you said anything. But because energy doesn't lie. You're home, but you're still at work.
In Episode 4 of the First Hero Podcast, Cory and Rich break down the "invisible transfer" — the unconscious way men carry the urgency, stress, and combat-mode of their work day straight into their living rooms.
We are the emotional thermostats of our homes. When we fail to flip the switch from provider to father, we don't just bring stress home. We bring it to her.
This episode is for every father who has ever gotten home, hugged his daughter, and then checked out. For every man who has snapped at his kid because he was still fighting a battle she had nothing to do with. For every dad who has sat in the guilt of knowing he had one hour before bedtime — and wasted it.
This isn't about hacks. It's about taking ownership of the energy you bring to the people who matter most.
In This Episode:
• The Invisible Transfer: Why your daughter feels your work stress before you say a single word.
• The Provider Trap: Why men struggle so deeply to turn off the "provider" brain and turn on the "father" heart.
• The 20-Minute Rule: How to create a hard, physical boundary between your work day and your home life.
• Business Urgency vs. Parenting Patience: The danger of bringing boardroom efficiency into your living room.
• "Do we have a visitor today?" — A raw, personal story from Rich that will completely change how you view your presence at home.
