Dads are Lonely. Here's How to Open the Door with Eli Weinstein
Have you ever looked at your partner and thought — I have no idea what's actually going on with him?   Most dads won't tell you. Not because they don't feel it — but because nobody ever taught them that they could. In this episode, licensed therapist and dad Eli Weinstein is back for Part 2 of our Father's Day series, and this time we're going deep on the emotional world of dads: the loneliness they carry quietly, the pressure of being "the rock," and the fear that opening up will make the people they love see them differently.   And then he gives us something we actually need: a real, usable script for how to open the door without pressure, without ultimatums, and without doing it all for him.   In this episode: Why loneliness is the #1 thing dads experience in early parenthood — and why they'll rarely admit it The "I'm fine" response decoded — what it's actually protecting What the "rock" mentality does to men's bodies and relationships over time How to ask your partner what he needs in a way he can actually hear The script Eli recommends for opening up the conversation — without cornering him Why doing it for him always backfires   This is Part 2 of our Father's Day series. Go back and listen to Part 1 if you haven't — it's one of my favorite conversations on this show.   Follow the show so you never miss an episode.
