About this listen

 What happens when a father loses contact with his children for three years? Garry Junkuhn discovered it can become the catalyst for profound transformation. After his relationship with a new partner led to complete estrangement from his sons, Garry chose an unconventional path. Instead of legal battles or blame, he embarked on a six-year nomadic journey of self-discovery. "What is the gift in this situation?" his mentor asked. That question changed everything. Through radical humility and personal growth, Garry not only reunited with his sons but built an even stronger relationship. His story offers hope to anyone facing relationship challenges: sometimes the way forward requires letting go of our story about what went wrong.Garry Junkuhn is a South African-born father and founder of 100k Fathers, dedicated to helping fathers reunite with their children through personal transformation rather than legal battles. After experiencing three years of complete separation from his two sons following a painful custody situation, Garry embarked on a six-year nomadic journey of self-discovery across South America. This transformative period led to not only reuniting with his sons but building stronger relationships than ever before. Today, Garry guides fathers worldwide through his counterintuitive approach that emphasizes personal growth, emotional resilience, and letting go of blame. His work focuses on preparing fathers for reunion through inner work rather than external force, helping them become the men their children need them to be.About The Show: The Life in Transition, hosted by Art Blanchford focuses on making the most of the changes we’re given every week.
