#88 Braith Anasta On Navigating The Single-Dad Life

Former footy player and Fox commentator, Braith Anasta, was a teenage sports prodigy.  He seemed to have it all - a loving and supportive family and professional sports career on the horizon.. but his world came crashing down when he was 15 and his father tragically took his own life. Braith opens up about the nightmare moment that came without any warning, the impact this had on his teenage years and how it shaped his life as a footballer, a man and as a dad. He also talks about the challenges of having to navigate parenting two kids (10-year-old Aleeia and 7 year old Gigi) from two separate relationships.  If you or someone you know is struggling, be sure to contact Lifeline at 13 11 14 or Beyond Blue at 1300 22 4636.

Om Podcasten

Two Doting Dads is a podcast series that follows the parenting escapades of two good mates, Matty J and Ash Wicks. Like all good modern relationships, they met on Instagram and instantly bonded over the fact that they were both sleep-deprived Dads doing their best to dote over their two children. They share a very laid-back style to parenting, they don't pretend to be experts and they celebrate every single parenting mishap (which there are plenty). If you're listening for parenting advice, you've come to the wrong podcast.
