In this episode, Daniel speaks about what it was like living alone. The moment when the eerily quiet arrived and the feelings started to come in as he settled into his new apartment. He shares how he watched a lot of Netflix and did anything he could to not embrace the loneliness. He also shares what it was like when he realized all the responsibilities he would assume as a single dad, that he didn’t have before. From doing the accounting to making the meals, he had to learn 22 years of stuff he had never done before.
But the real gold of the episode is towards the end, where he talks about not guilting his children when it was his time to be alone with them. He shares how he communicated with his ex about it, and the realization he had just after that conversation. If you are a parent, you want to hear this. It’s an EPIC insight.
