Let's take a step back in time to discover the fascinating origins of Father's Day. Did you know that it wasn’t officially recognized until 1972, long after Mother's Day? Learn about Sonora Smart Dodd’s incredible journey to honor fathers everywhere and the unexpected pagan roots linked to sun worship and the summer solstice. We'll also reflect on the seven traditional roles of fathers—protector, provider, teacher, mentor, friend, emotional anchor, and celebrant—through stories from our own lives.
Father's Day isn't just a hallmark of love; it's a retail titan, too! We'll explore how this special day has become the fourth largest card-selling occasion in the US, and share personal anecdotes from Hannah's time working in a card shop. Tune in for a lively discussion on the evolving roles of fatherhood, co-parenting, and the changing gender dynamics in breadwinning. Get ready to laugh, learn, and maybe even rethink what it means to be a dad in today's world.
