Pappy Palmer
For this Father's Day episode of the podcast, I sat down with my dad Mike “Pappy” Palmer to have a real heartfelt conversation about family, parenting, and life. We sat down over a glass of bourbon and covered a lot of ground - from our experiences raising kids and being grandparents, to how family dynamics have changed over the generations.
Dad shared his perspective on the differences between being a parent and being a grandparent, which was really interesting to hear. We also got a little deep talking about coping with his cancer diagnosis last year and what that was like for both of us as a parent and child. Dad had some really wise insights about preparing kids for life's ups and downs.
I really enjoyed talking with dad about how we each define success at this stage in life. I'm really thankful I was able to sit down and have this talk with dad and hope you enjoy it!
