365 Dad with Odeani McBean

I used to be a dad who struggled to achieve his personal goals because fatherhood felt too chaotic. I've endured a 3-year custody battle, financial hardships, failed relationships, felt unseen, under-appreciated, and isolated as a dad. At my lowest, I discovered practices that, amidst all the chaos, helped me stay grounded, achieve my goals, and strengthen my bond with my children. Now, I’m proud to say my name is Odeani McBean; I'm an entrepreneur, devoted father of two, and I help millennial dads achieve their aspirations while navigating the complexities of fatherhood and societal pressures.

The 365 Dad Podcast is here to help you reframe how you view and handle fatherhood adversity, while reaching your true potential as dad and as a man. Here you can access the power of your higher self, mindfulness, self-reflection, personal development, strengthened relationships, and a solid community of like-minded dads.

Join me every Monday morning to start prioritizing yourself and cultivate a more conscious, intentional journey in fatherhood.

The Biggest Mistake Dads Make When Building Mindfulness Habits.

January 07, 2025 • Odeani McBean • Episode 19

We all know the guilt that creeps in when we miss a day (or a week) of journaling or meditation. But what if the secret to building a consistent mindfulness practice isn’t perfection; but giving yourself grace?

In this episode, I open up about the struggles of staying consistent as a dad juggling it all and share why missing a day doesn’t mean you’ve failed. I’ll dive into the common traps dads fall into when trying to cultivate mindfulness and offer practical, actionable tips to help you stay on track; without the guilt.

This is an episode for any dad who’s ever felt overwhelmed by the weight of expectations, struggled to find time for himself, or just needed someone to remind him: you’re doing better than you think.

If you’ve ever needed a mindset shift when it comes to mindfulness and fatherhood, this one’s for you.
