Hello.
Welcome to my little corner of the internet, Dad Business. This is where I share my insights and experience of being a Dad and running a business in the UK. It’s like any dad blog, but with a twist – I’m a transgender dad. Shocking, I know, but stick with me, I want to share that the challenges and triumphs of being a dad are just like other dads..
Just Another Dad (Sort Of)
Here’s the deal: I do dad stuff, just like any other dad. Night time wake ups, nappy duty, making food. Being the entertainment, referee, support and disciplinarian. Spilled juice? Been there. Nappy Poonamis? Oh, hell yes. Picture the usual dad scenes: lost coats, muddy hands, and the occasional mystery stain. I’m an involved, flawed, loving man trying to do the best raising my kids.
My Path and Purpose
My working life has been as colourful as a kid’s birthday party – from youth work to employed in small businesses to running my own digital marketing gig. But my big adventure? Experiencing life before, during and after gender transition.
I aim to be a visible, positive role model for young trans men everywhere.
My family is made up of me, my wife and our six amazing kids. Some with extra needs, some neurodiverse, and a pair of twins who think they’re running the show. Let me introduce the Chaos Crew, one non-binary, then my eldest boy, after that two little girls. Finishing up with a pair of twin boys. Alongside my wife, we’re living a story worth telling – one filled with laughter, learning, and lots of love.
When not in dad-mode, you’ll find me digging in the garden, watching films, or gaming like it’s 1999, GTA5 anyone? And yes, I’m that guy who can’t resist a good skip dive. These are the moments that make me, me.
Here at Dad Business, I’m serving up stories, tips, and a few ‘oops’ moments from the fatherhood frontline. If you’re after the sugar-coated version of parenting, you’re definitely in the wrong place. But for real, raw, and sometimes ridiculous dad tales, pull up a chair.
