Description

Today's guest is Blue NethercliftWe go deep talking about:Coparenting when your child lives overseasHow Blue develops a Secure Attachment with his son living halfway around the worldConsistency with your child and being open with your feelingsLearning to let go and trusting the processLeaning towards gratitude as opposed to anger and frustrationFinding practices that help you stay groundedThe power of your thoughtsBlue is a father to two young boys, with another baby boy on the way. He went through a difficult break up with his first wife but Blue has remained positive and become resilient by parenting creatively to maintain a strong connection and close bond with his son that lives overseas while raising his young family with his beloved wife Sage.From taking up skateboarding at age 45 to FaceTime dance parties, from recording bedtime stories as audio files to online photo albums, and tracking his son's calendar at school so he knows what's happening each week, he is an engaged and resilient long distance parent and full time Dad. He is now using his podcast Dad Without Borders to shed light on the positive aspects of being a Dad on the shitty side of a break up with kids, while chatting to Dads about their challenges, all with a positive spin and professional feedback from his inner circle of professionals. Blue works to expose Dads as being often undervalued and overlooked and an integral part of any child's life as we move into a new era of fatherhood. Blue immigrated to Canada in the early 2000s as an entrepreneur with an adventure tourism company. He has over 20 years of experience working in outdoor education as an instructor, guide and facilitator. When he became a father he shifted gears to focus on his family and has recently worked as a career facilitator and coach. Currently he works for Live It Earth, an online educational platform developed to connect kids with nature through a blended learning program.Mentioned on this episode:The Power Of Showing Up by Daniel J.
