Gap to Gig – Working Dads' Guide to Fatherhood, Meaningful Work, & Finding Balance in Life
Includes transcripts
Gap to Gig explores the life in between who we are, what we do, and the life we want to build as working dads.
Through honest conversations with dads, experts, leaders, and people who have navigated their own twists and turns, host Michael Jacobs explores fatherhood, work-life balance, meaningful work, parenting, identity, ambition, relationships, and what actually matters most in modern life.
Most of life’s biggest decisions don’t belong exclusively to work or family. They live somewhere in between, where the challenge isn’t simply succeeding at work or showing up at home, but figuring out how all the pieces fit together.
How do you build a meaningful career without losing yourself in it? How do you stay ambitious while remaining present for the people who matter most? How do you navigate career changes, setbacks, uncertainty, and new opportunities while still showing up for your family? How do you know if you’re spending your time on the right things?
This show is for working dads who feel pulled between responsibility and fulfillment, ambition and presence, work and the rest of life. The dads who don’t want to wake up ten years from now wondering where the time went.
Every conversation is designed to help you make more intentional choices about your work, your relationships, and the life you’re building before the years have a chance to pass you by. Along the way, you’ll find practical ideas, fresh perspective, and the confidence that comes from knowing you’re not the only dad asking these questions.
