A little sneak peek into some of the things we chat about:

Blake’s journey to becoming a professional footy playerThe lack of information on preparing first-time parents leaving the hospital with their newbornsThe weird things we do as dads to try and calm our little bubs downBlake talks about his first experience with bullying and how he handled itThe best parenting advice Blake receivedDoes the NRL provide any support around players that are dads?How professionalism has changed over the years The difference between bullying now versus bullying back when we were at school What do Blake and his partner do to stay connected?The importance of having a group of 'dad-friends' to catch up with
