About Us










HI! I’M PAUL

A husband, dad, and writer dedicated to helping young parents be the happiest version of themselves.

Parenting Can Be Lonely

Parenthood can be lonely. My mission is to share my own experiences and offer practical advice that will make the parenting journey less lonely.  

As a young parent, I’ve been through most if not all of the problems other parents face today. From struggling financially to being harshly judged about how I raise my daughter.

I’m here to reassure my fellow young parents that the challenges they face are common among parents. I want them to feel loved and cared for, not judged and neglected.

While I still don't have figured everything out, here are some of the ways I can help you;

Are you a young parent struggling to meet your family's financial needs? I’ll help you learn the various ways to make a living online.

Dealing with toddler tantrums? I’ll show you the various tips that worked for our daughter.

Struggling to maintain a work-life balance? I’ve got plenty of tips to help you regain balance.

 My Story  

The experience of raising my daughter has made me realize how clueless I was as a parent. I was not knowledgeable about a lot of things, including  

i. Baby sleep

I didn’t know newborns couldn't distinguish between day and night. No one warned me of the sleepless nights my wife and I would stay up soothing our daughter to sleep.

I didn’t know about sleep training or its benefits. Our daughter wouldn’t nap for more than 20 minutes during the day and woke up countless times during the night.

ii. Work-life balance

When my daughter turned one, I got a job as a customer service representative in a call center. I worked at ungodly hours of the night and slept throughout the day. Keeping a work-life balance was another obstacle we had to overcome.

iii. A child’s developmental milestones

I wasn’t ready for my daughters' terrible twos. Her new unruly behaviors made us question our parenting style. We felt inadequate as if we weren't doing something right.

 

But You Don’t Have To Do It Alone

Sleep problems, lack of work-life balance, and dealing with toddler tantrums are things that other young parents deal with out there. And we, therefore, hope to find solutions from others around us.

The majority of the advice we received was outdated or didn't apply to our daughter. It was overwhelming to feel like nothing worked.

My own experiences have made me realize that most young parents start this journey without knowing what lies ahead. And that’s perfectly okay since there’s no manual for this job.

It is my hope that through this blog, I can help parents who feel clueless like my wife did for a while.

I understand that no two children are the same. What works for me and my daughter may not work for everyone. Nevertheless, I am committed to providing accurate, relatable, and practical tips for every parent.

From Fear to Fatherhood: Overcoming Fatherhood Anxiety

They don’t come with manuals, and if you feel powerless, if you struggle to balance your responsibilities, that's okay you are not alone. “I just don’t know what to do anymore." That was the thought that often ran through my mind. I had no job, no experience raising or caring for a postpartum mom. Let alone changing a diaper, and just before my wife’s delivery, I had $0.29 to my name. As an adult, this was a challenging time. I never felt as fragile. I was in a house of cards and I can't really pinpoint the exact feelings here. You may not be in such a situation, but we may have the following fears in common. Fearing the Unknown Though no parent is perfect, fatherhood can be challenging and you constantly think and doubt whether you are good enough or ready. No doubt you will make some mistakes while providing, nurturing, and being available for your family. The good thing about fear of the unknown is that you can talk about it. You can talk to your parents, family...
