The Restorative Man Podcast The Fight for Wonder in Modern Fatherhood with Jeff Zaugg
In Part 2 of our conversation with Jeff Zaugg, we move past surface-level fatherhood advice and into the deeper work of becoming present, wholehearted dads. Jeff unpacks the six core discoveries that shape a man’s journey and explains why intent alone does not transform our families. We talk honestly about how modern dads often default to provision and protection while quietly losing wonder, delight, and emotional presence. This episode explores how pace, freedom, identity, and courage intersect in everyday fatherhood, from bedtime routines to life-altering decisions. If you have ever felt the tension between grinding through responsibility and treasuring your kids, this conversation will name it and reframe it.
