On this episode of the Daughtered Podcast, Oscar host Brent Dowlen, a Men’s Relationship & Personal Development Coach and the creator behind Purpose Driven Men—a coaching & media platform helping men move from simply living to truly thriving with purpose, growth, and legacy. He hosts the Driven 2 Thrive broadcast (formerly The Fallible Man), and the Dad Hat Shenanigans podcast, and he produces other shows as well. Brent is, more importantnly, a father of two beatiful daughters and he joins Oscar to talk mission mindset, modeling respect, and building resilient kids by letting them see us struggle and still show up.
In this conversation, two girl dads get real about what actually matters: presence over perfection, setting the bar by how we love Mom, and taking care of the man our daughters call Dad.
If you’re a dad who’s ever thought, “Am I enough?” this one’s for you.
