About this listen

In this episode of Anthony Thomas Podcast, I open up about a parenting mistake I made—and why I’m owning it. 🙏👨‍👧

I start by unpacking the difference between permissive parenting and gentle parenting (and how I got it wrong), then share what I’ve learned about apologizing—both to our kids and in life. From exploring different types of apologies to reflecting on how to model humility and growth as a parent, this episode is all about accountability.


Tune in for a candid conversation on learning, apologizing well, and becoming a more intentional dad.
