Welcome to Episode 3 of Grown Ass Dads—where three mid-life dads tackle the real, raw, and ridiculous realities of trying to balance it all. Spoiler alert: work-life balance isn’t real, and if it is, we haven’t met a single dad who’s cracked the code.

In this episode, Jason, Adam, and Jay explore what it actually looks like to juggle being dads, partners, professionals, and still trying to squeeze in a little personal time (usually in the bathroom, let’s be honest). This one is packed with real talk, laughs, and a few accidental mic drops on modern fatherhood.

🔥 Episode Highlights:

• Is work-life balance even real? Spoiler: No. Harmony? Maybe.
• Dad guilt hits hard – “I’m failing at everything.”
• How to reset when everything’s out of whack
• Long bathroom breaks = dad therapy
• Morning routines we want vs. the ones we actually have
• Parenting lessons hidden in school drop-offs
• Isolation, burnout, and the mental load of being “the rock”
• Crabby little bitches & quiet rage: How dads carry stress
• Anger vs. sadness vs. fear—and how to deal with all three
• “The Ideal Week” method to reclaim your life and your sanity

👊 If you’ve ever felt like you’re drowning in responsibility, screwing up at everything, or hiding in the garage just to catch your breath—you’re in the right place.

Whether you’re winning, surviving, or completely winging it, this one’s for the dads doing their best (and occasionally falling flat on their faces).
