Trading Briefcases for Building Blocks: My Journey to Stay-at-Home Dad Life

After six years of being the parent who rushed out the door each morning, I’ve stepped into a new chapter: stay-at-home dad. The transition has been both humbling and rewarding—swapping conference calls for snack time, and deadlines for playdates. It’s a role I never imagined I’d take on, but every day brings new lessons in patience, creativity, and connection with my kids. There are challenges, sure, but the joy of being present for every milestone makes it all worth it. For any parent considering a similar leap, know that it’s okay to embrace change and redefine what success looks like for your family. Have you ever made a big shift in your parenting journey?
