In this week’s episode, I take you back to the day I found out I was going to be a dad—right after writing my Grade 12 English exam. What started as excitement over a new iPhone turned into a life-changing moment outside a sports store. From fear to freedom, this is the story of how Sheena and I became our own little family.
