Dad Club Japan
Division and Change in the Family and the Self: Evan talks about his life adjustments. Ep. 30
Our guest this episode is Evan.
He came well prepared to discuss the changes in his life and the adjustments he has made after moving from Japan to the UK and back to Japan again.
A Scottish father of two teenagers, Evan's first commitment was always to his family. As a Dad who cherished his time with his family, he devoted his time and energy to the noble cause of raising his children.
But that commitment may have come at the expense of creating his own identity and exploring his Self.
While his identity as a father never wavered, his own personal identity changed along with some major changes in his marriage.
Happy to be back in Japan, Evan's time away allowed some realizations about his own life and fatherhood that he shares in this stimulating and enlightening episode.
Plus, Evan also brought along an AI generated Dad Club Japan them song which we share here for you. Stay tuned until the end to hear the uninterrupted version. We are sure you'll like it as much as we did!
As always, we are happy to hear from you, valued listener!
