What unique parenting hacks does Brandon SODERBERG offer for stay-at-home dads?

I’m Brandon. I talk a lot about parenting from the real-life, stay-at-home dad angle, not the “perfect Instagram family” version.

A few unique hacks I lean on:

• Treat “needing a break” as a win, not a failure – I’m open about asking my wife to tag in when I’m frustrated. It protects my relationship with the kids and with her.
• Build work around family, not the other way around – I’ve built a work-from-home setup so I can step away for a breather without anyone feeling guilty or ignored.
• Lean into your kids’ weirdness – if my kids want to be “part goose” with the local gaggle, I roll with it and turn it into connection and storytelling instead of trying to control everything.
