The Dad Strength Podcast

Graham Isador joins Geoff Girvitz on The Dad Strength Podcast.

Show Notes

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have chiselled abs? Or otherwise wonder what life would be like if you were fitter? Or richer? Or more of whatever it is media tells us we’re supposed to be? Me either. But I know a guy who’s willing to admit to doing so. Not just admit it; write about it and put his internal life on public display.

Graham Isador is a writer in Toronto. His work has appeared at VICE, GQ, and the BBC. And he’s brought me into some of his past experiments. These have been personal experiments designed for public consumption. Isador’s ability to capture what we’ve all thought and felt is superb. We talk about all that—as well as masculine relationships—in this episode of The Dad Strength Podcast.

What is The Dad Strength Podcast?

There is no strength like dad strength. It is quiet, patient, and persistent. Some would say stubborn, dammit. Dad strength rarely makes the highlight reel. It exists in the in-between spaces....The times when nobody—except maybe your kid—is watching.

The Dad Strength Podcast was created to support and encourage the best in dads like you. Authors, entrepreneurs, artists, and experts from all over share their wisdom with us. We discuss 360º health, doing work that matters, and—of course—fatherhood. These conversations are fun, informative, and always emphasize action and understanding.

The Dad Strength Podcast is hosted by Geoff Girvitz. Geoff is a father, fitness expert, and curious fellow. Based in Toronto, he has been featured in Vice, GQ, and multiple exercise publications. He is known for innovation and real-world success in the fitness industry. Now, Geoff is pointing a wide-angle lens at health and parenthood. Workouts and nutrition are just part of the program. He will be looking at relationships, critical thinking, motivation, and discipline. In short, anything you need to earn the mug that says “*World’s Greatest Dad.”*

“I want to be Mr. Rogers for men over 30,” says Geoff. “There is so much noise and confusion out there.” We *all* need a community devoted to the best we have inside of us. The Dad Strength Podcast is here to make the world a better place through our roles as fathers and as men.
