They discuss setting firm boundaries, prioritizing health, family, and the platform, and learning to be “selfish” for self-preservation without becoming a selfish person. D. Johns shares lessons from his corporate past about overextending, how unaddressed stress can spill into other relationships, and why communicating needs matters before resentment builds. The conversation also touches on letting people fall off if they don’t fit your priorities, and the value of trusted friends who genuinely ask how you’re doing.#fathersonrelationship #adviceformen #modernfatherhood #adultchildren #lifelessonsformen #raisingmen #raisingkids #mantalk Channel Focus Areas:“What Fathers Should Teach Their Sons”“How to Be a Better Father”“Father Son Relationship Advice”“Mistakes Fathers Make”“Lessons Every Man Should Learn”Shop DSN Merch: https://thedearsonshop.storeFollow James: https://instagram.com/jeyblac Also, if you've made it this far, don't forget to:1. subscribe to the channel, 2. turn on the notifications,3. like this video, 4. leave a comment, and5. share this content with someone who needs it.The DSP: https://thedearsonpodcast.com Support the podcast by supporting our sponsors: Love Kisha J Studios: https://houseoflkj.com Let’s connect socially: https://instagram.com/thedearsonpodcast https://facebook.com/thedearsonpodcast The Three Foundational Pillars of the DSP Community1.
