As a widowed father of four and grandfather to eleven, I bring decades of experience navigating the joys and challenges of family life, from a 42-year marriage to raising children and supporting my own children in their parenting journeys. Losing my spouse taught me the importance of rediscovering who you are as an individual and finding strength in redefining your role in life. I understand the evolving challenges parents face today, from shifting societal norms to economic pressures, and I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to explore solutions. Rather than giving advice, I provide a sounding board, asking thoughtful questions to help uncover perspectives and possibilities. Sometimes, the right words at the right time can make all the difference—and I’m here to listen and share when needed.
