Seems pathetic. And same thing with a coach. Again, it's actually the same thing. The thing that people don't understand about good inside and why I would never call it gentle is we put so much emphasis on boundaries. And when you hear me talk about a boundary, you're like, oh, that does not sound soft at all. You actually are like, I'm actually not even setting boundaries.

My punishments and threats are soft boundaries. That is soft because not acting from a position of power, you're not true power.

No. Tell me about it.

No, but I do want to say that I have a deep passion to connect with more dads because what I see also that's very hopeful, I feel like dads these days, like they really want to be involved. And it's not just about time. Like, they're like, I want to be a kind of different version of a dad. I want to be present. I want to also be the one my kid comes to when they're upset. Maybe not just a mom.

I just think that's amazing. And in a way, I still feel like there's more shame from moms almost getting a real parent education than there is from dads. Because I think this idea of maternal instinct, I've never heard the world talk about paternal instinct.

So there's almost more openness, which is kind of amazing that maybe the dads can be the one to say if they're married to a woman, like, hey, together, why would this come naturally? This is a new language. This matters to us the most. This is all parent education. What we do is preventative mental health care.

There is nothing more impactful on your kids' overall mental health as they get older than the dynamic with you early on. And, of course, the dynamic with us early on is dependent on how much we have access to true education and resources. And so to me, maybe dads, and I would love dads from your show, like I want to think like how can we get dads to really help also like lead this movement?
