    Your Kids Don’t Need A Perfect Parent | Jon Gustin

    2026/07/18 | 15 mins.
    Your kids don’t need you to pretend you have it all figured out. In this episode, Ryan talks with Jon Gustin, creator of The Tired Dad, about losing your temper, apologizing, repairing after mistakes, and why showing your kids that you’re human can make them feel safer, not less secure.

    Jon Gustin is the founder of The Tired Dad LLC and the voice behind The Tired Dad, a movement built around showing up for what matters most. His book, The Tired Dad.: 100 Reflections on Showing Up for What Matters Most, is out now!
