Fatherhood isn’t just about providing—it's about presence, leadership, and showing up in the moments that matter. Joe Carr sits down with Ned Schaut, a father of five, podcast host, and author of The Adventure of Fatherhood, to explore what it truly means to be a dad in today’s world.
Ned shares his personal journey through early fatherhood, the lessons he learned supporting his partner during pregnancy, and how embracing his faith helped guide him through the challenges of parenting, marriage, and identity. Together, they dive into how men can be more than just providers—they can be stewards of their families, builders of trust, and leaders grounded in love and values.
In this episode, we discuss:
How can dads be more involved during pregnancy and birth?
What does true fatherhood stewardship look like?
Why do so many men miss out on key parenting moments?
How do you balance faith, family, and career without burning out?
What’s the biggest myth new dads need to let go of?
Being dadicated isn’t about having all the answers.
It’s about showing up.
It’s about committing to the kind of dad—and man—you want to be, even when it’s hard. Especially when it’s hard.
Joe Carr is a dad to Della, husband to Serenity, co-founder of Serenity Kids baby food, and the voice behind Dadicated Joe.
