Manage episode 454883573 series 2803257
Welcome back to The Dad Show Podcast! In today's powerful Part 2 episode, host Ryan shares a heartfelt and deeply personal conversation with his guest, Brandon Janous, as they dive into the complex and often difficult journey of fatherhood, grief, and learning to be present.
Brandon opens up about his experience as a husband and father, reflecting on the moments when he thought "providing" financially was his greatest responsibility, only to realize that being truly present—emotionally and physically—was what his family needed the most. The episode explores the emotional toll of the work grind and how it took a life-changing decision—packing up their family and living in an RV for a year—to help Brandon reconnect with his loved ones.
But the conversation takes a more profound turn when Brandon shares his journey of walking through his wife Rachel's battle with cancer. From the shock of the diagnosis to the deep moments of faith and surrender, Brandon speaks about his struggle of not being able to "fix it," and how he had to rely on God's strength to guide him through the darkest moments of his life. He discusses how God used Rachel's illness to minister to others, and how the couple's faith became the anchor for their family through a time of unimaginable hardship.
Whether you're navigating the challenges of balancing work, family, and faith, or struggling with the loss of a loved one, this episode will inspire you to slow down, show up for your family, and trust that God has a plan—no matter what you're going through.
