This week on the BFF Empowerment Podcast, host Black Diamond sits down with a special guest for a heartfelt and eye-opening Father’s Day episode. Meet Joey Ortiz, a devoted single father of two daughters who opens up about the realities, sacrifices, and mental toll of single fatherhood.

👨‍👧‍👧 From custody battles to emotional wellness, co-parenting struggles, and financial sacrifices, Joey shares what it truly means to show up for your children as a father — especially when society often forgets that dads parent too. This honest, raw, and inspiring conversation challenges stereotypes and celebrates fathers who nurture, lead, and grow alongside their kids.

💡 Whether you're a single parent, navigating co-parenting, or simply want to understand the emotional and mental weight fathers carry, this episode offers inspiration, truth, and vulnerability in every word.

🎧 Tune in as we honor fathers, father figures, and all the men stepping up — not just on Father's Day, but every day.

Key Topics:

· Fatherhood & emotional health

· Co-parenting without conflict

· Breaking single dad stigmas

· Balancing work, parenting, and self-care

· Parenting girls as a man

· Encouragement for single parents

✨ “It’s not about being the perfect parent — it’s about being present.”
