Father’s Club on Season 2, Episode 7 of the Just a Mom Podcast

By Tom Herzog, Board Member and Director of Mental Health Awareness for Father’s Club

Brad and I had a fantastic time recording a podcast episode with Susie Gurley of Just a Mom Podcast. She is doing amazing work to inspire necessary conversation for all of us to make a difference when it comes to mental health for our kids!

In Episode 7 of season 2 of The Just a Mom Podcast, we talk about the @TheFathersClub mission; how this grass root effort is promoting intentionality around relationships, the work to be a catalyst for change to address mental health, teen suicide, substance abuse, technology addiction, self-worth, and stronger families. There is no question to the challenges before us, but when we press in, we can help one another in the pursuit to be our best selves.
