Mastering "Work From Home" as a Dad | Thom Gibson on Happiness, Health, Fatherhood
About this episode
Thom Gibson shares insights on mastering work from home as a dad amidst the challenges of parenting.
Feel like working from home with kids is a constant juggling act, and you’re dropping balls left and right? More dads than ever are navigating the chaos of Zoom calls interrupted by tiny voices, endless snack requests, and the struggle to be present both at work AND at home at all times. Thankfully, in this episode we're joined by social media strategist Thom Gibson, founder of Work From Home Dads, and proud father of two young kids. After a decade spent teaching middle school math and robotics, Thom made the leap—leaving the classroom to build new businesses (and memories) from his home office. His story is packed with insights on boosting productivity, improving daily and weekly routines, and mastering the real work-life blend for dads. Stick around to the end for a gut-busting installment of "Did I Just Say That Out Loud?" and a rock and roll blast from the past from Marc's kid-music-side-project, Stuffed Animal.
