In this special episode of The Best You Podcast, Nick sits down with longtime mentor and friend Scott Miller and his 15-year-old son Thatcher for a refreshingly honest conversation about parenting. Scott and Thatcher have just released a book sharing 30 raw insights into his experiences as a father—complete with mistakes, missteps, and meaningful lessons. At the end of each chapter, Thatcher shares his own candid thoughts, giving us a rare glimpse into how parenting choices feel from the child’s perspective.
If you’re a parent in the thick of it, this episode and book is for you. If you’re a soon to be parent and want to get a jumpstart on some best practices, then tune in. Or if your kids have grown up and you want to learn how to transition to more of a friend to them, then tune in, too. This conversation is equal parts heartwarming, humorous, and profoundly insightful.
