On this Episode Aaron sits down with Mr. LaTane Brackett III, to discuss an experience that most people encounter in their lifetime... Broken Relationships due to Broken Communication.

Until life started to move a bit quicker for the both of them in the area of work, school, and general opportunities. In this conversation LaTane shares the experiences that he believes led to a fracture in the relationship and he brings us into a beautiful full-circle moment between he and his son.

In an interview that was originally recorded for a short documentary series featuring fathers, Aaron set down with Greg Vann to talk what else… fatherhood! Greg discusses finding out when his wife was pregnant and the fact that he didn’t want to celebrate initially out of fear of all the stigmas that comes along with pregnancy (like thoughts of losing the baby during the pregnancy amongst others). Greg then goes on to give a vivid recount of the delivery room process… let’s just say his recount should be listened to by fathers-to-be, it’ll help you brace yourselves! We acknowledge and celebrate Greg for being an example of what sacrificial fatherhood looks like. From all that we know about Greg, he’s really being a trailblazer for what true manhood and fatherhood looks like for an entire generation!  Subscribe. Download.
