    100th Episode Special: Brother vs Brother on Dad Life | Daniel Fishman (Dad of 1, Redwood Trust)
    2025/07/10
    Dan Fishman is a husband, a lawyer, and a relatively new parent. He’s also Adam’s brother, and the very special guest for the 100th episode of Startup Dad. By day, Dan is Associate General Counsel at Redwood Trust, but at home, he’s going through fatherhood for the first time by navigating toddler teething, sleep deprivation, and the occasional lemon tree massacre. He’s still figuring out what kind of dad he actually wants to be.In this episode, Dan reflects on the surprises of new parenthood, what he’s borrowing from how he was raised, and why he’s still not sure he identifies as “Dad.”Letting go of the old identity: Why Dan doesn’t fully relate to the label “dad” just yet, how parenting has shifted his priorities and time management, and what it means to enjoy the ride without “going full Dad.”Channeling childhood joy: From chasing his daughter around the house with their Scottish terriers to dance parties with the Beatles, Dan shares how he’s making space for silliness and spontaneity.Fugue states and yard work: How a COVID brain fog, a teething baby, and a pair of pruning shears led to the total annihilation of the family lemon tree, and why Dan and Sophie now laugh about it.Simple frameworks for staying sane: Why Dan leans on intuitive parenting, presence over perfection, and the rule of “don’t compare workloads” to keep his household and partnership healthy.A love letter for the future: Dan shares a message for his daughter to hear when she’s 21, with the lessons he hopes to pass down, including a serious warning about law school and a reminder that her dad will always be her biggest fan.Where to find Daniel FishmanLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-f-45731916Where to find Adam FishmanFishmanAF Newsletter: www.FishmanAFNewsletter.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamjfishman/ Instagram: https://ww.instagram.com/startupdadpod/ In this episode, we cover:(00:00) Introducing Daniel Fishman(02:08) Parenting reflections and surprises(04:27) The work-life balance of Dan and “Work Dan”(05:51) Fatherhood changes and early memories(11:11) Parenting advice and decisions(20:48) Favorite books and music for kids(24:46) Parenting frameworks and challenges(28:45) The Lemon tree incident(29:22) Household strife and COVID fugue state(30:22) Parenting frameworks and humor(32:32) Anna's relationship with technology(33:52) Anna's first birthday and future skills(36:15) Dad jokes and future messages(38:51) Lightning Round: Parenting Products and HacksShow references:Redwood Trust: https://www.redwoodtrust.com/Sega Genesis: https://asia.sega.com/genesismini/Severance: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11280740/Scottish Terrier: https://www.akc.org/dog-breeds/scottish-terrier/Bruce Springsteen: https://brucespringsteen.net/The Beatles: https://www.thebeatles.com/Grateful Dead: https://www.dead.net/Stern Grove Festival: https://www.sterngrove.org/Hardly Strictly Bluegrass: https://hardlystrictlybluegrass.com/Golden Gate Park: https://sfrecpark.org/770/Golden-Gate-ParkThom York: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thom_YorkeRadiohead: https://www.radiohead.com/Jon Klassen The Hat Trilogy Series: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/series/G6I/the-hat-trilogy/Julia Donaldson: https://www.juliadonaldson.co.uk/Nose Frida: https://frida.com/Chatgpt.comTraining a Tiger: A Father's Guide to Raising a Winner in Both Golf and Life by Earl Woods: https://www.amazon.com/Training-Tiger-Fathers-Raising-Winner/dp/0062701789The Elephant and the Bad Baby: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1095518.The_Elephant_and_the_Bad_Baby Baby Shusher: https://babyshusher.com/Puffs: https://www.gerber.com/shop-by-product/snacks Terminator 2: Judgement Day: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103064/Ratatouille: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0382932/Minecraft: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3566834/The Simpsons: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096697/Neverending Story: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088323/Larry David: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0202970/—For sponsorship inquiries email: podcast@fishmana.com.For Startup Dad Merch: www.startupdadshop.com

  • Why Working Parents Are Assets, Not Liabilities | Alex Egeler (Dad of 4, Empathic Egg)

    Why Working Parents Are Assets, Not Liabilities | Alex Egeler (Dad of 4, Empathic Egg)
    2025/06/26
    Alex Egeler is a former engineering executive turned parent career coach. He’s also a father of four boys, a husband, and a stay-at-home dad who helps other working parents navigate meaningful careers that support, not strain their families. In this episode, Alex opens up about the unpredictable reality of parenting, the generational mental health patterns he’s determined to break, and how becoming a dad transformed how he views success. We discussed:Letting go of the career script: How Alex’s first paternity leave revealed the emptiness of his “perfect job” and led him to walk away, and how each child helped him rewrite what meaningful work really looks like.Undoing generational pressure: Why the deaths of Alex’s father and grandfather pushed him to question everything he believed about work, identity, and what it means to be a good dad.Parenting with emotional honesty: Alex shares how he learned to show all emotions and not just the “good” ones, and how that shift helped his kids build trust, empathy, and resilience.Supporting a child with bipolar disorder: Why Alex and his wife approach parenting as a tag team, how they talk openly about mental health with their 12-year-old son, and what they’ve learned about showing up differently in crisis vs. calm.Building flexible careers for parents: How Alex coaches other working parents to question old assumptions, set realistic job goals, and own their value in the job market — especially in roles that support both career and caregiving.Where to find Alex EgelerLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-egeler-empathic-egg/ Empathic Egg: https://www.empathicegg.com/Where to find Adam FishmanFishmanAF Newsletter: www.FishmanAFNewsletter.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamjfishman/ Instagram: https://ww.instagram.com/startupdadpod/ In this episode, we cover:(00:00) Introducing Alex Egeler(02:10) How becoming a dad reshaped Alex’s career path(05:08) The false promise of boundaries between work and family(09:12) When Alex realized his job wasn’t meaningful anymore(12:06) Four generations of men and mental health struggles(16:15) Grieving his father through the eyes of his own son(20:20) How Alex and his wife talk about depression with their child(24:05) The invisible support team behind every successful parent(27:15) Why stepping back from work was harder emotionally than socially(31:00) Parenting four boys including surprise twins(34:30) The sibling dynamics that no one prepares you for(38:15) Teaching emotional regulation to young kids(44:30) Using Dr. Becky’s “Good Inside” framework in daily life(54:40) The power of reframing parenting as support, not punishment(01:03:00) Lightning round: must-haves, mindsets, and momentsShow references:Inside Out: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2096673/Batteries Not Included: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092494/ ‘Alex’s LI: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-egeler-empathic-egg/Stanford: https://www.stanford.edu/Fibonacci Sequence: https://www.mathsisfun.com/numbers/fibonacci-sequence.htmlGood Inside, Dr. Becky: https://www.goodinside.com/Company of Dads/Paul Sullivan: https://thecompanyofdads.com/Paul Sullivan’s Episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJSbH8uydFoMidjourney: https://www.midjourney.com/homeChatGPT.comIf I Built a House by Chris Van Dusen: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/if-i-built-a-house-chris-van-dusen/1109327478Caillou: https://en.caillou.com/—For sponsorship inquiries email: podcast@fishmana.com.For Startup Dad Merch: www.startupdadshop.com

  • The Portfolio Career That Made Him a Better Parent | Ben Erez (Dad of 1, PM Coach/Product Advisor)

    The Portfolio Career That Made Him a Better Parent | Ben Erez (Dad of 1, PM Coach/Product Advisor)
    2025/06/19

    Ben Erez is a former founder and product leader turned solopreneur and instructor. He teaches a popular Maven course for aspiring product managers, hosts the podcast Supra Insider, and is a proud girl dad living in Brooklyn.

    In this episode, Ben shares what it’s like raising a daughter while building a portfolio career on his own terms. We discussed:

    • How solo parenting can feel easier: Why Ben finds weekday solo parenting less stressful than co-parenting, and how clarity in routine helps him stay grounded.
    • Making the leap to fatherhood: The pros and cons exercise Ben used to think through becoming a parent and what ultimately pushed him to take the leap.
    • What makes a portfolio career work: How Ben structures his time across fractional work, teaching, building an AI product, and podcasting without feeling overwhelmed.
    • Structure as a path to freedom: Why routines have become essential for Ben and how they help him stay present, productive, and connected to his family.
    • Handling disagreements as partners: Ben reflects on navigating different parenting styles with his wife and how they’ve built a process for staying aligned.
    • Creating connection through community: How a local dad group gave Ben a deeper sense of belonging and why it’s made parenting feel a little less isolating.
