In this Dad Diary, I reflect on the dual challenges of fatherhood across distance and at home. Saying goodbye to my eldest son after a summer visit — complete with a broken arm and his first solo flight — pushed me to hold space for his sadness while staying steady. At the same time, helping my three-year-old navigate daycare transitions has reminded me that even small daily goodbyes ask for presence, consistency, and soft strength.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

  • The emotional goodbye of my son’s first solo flight back to the UK
  • Rituals our family uses to anchor connection through goodbyes
  • How daycare transitions mirror the bigger separations
  • Reflections on Jason Wilson’s idea of being “the man the moment demands”
