19. Baby Biohackers: Dave Asprey on Optimizing Pregnancy & Parenting
Dadicated Joe
What struck me most about this episode was the fact that choices parents make in pregnancy and early childhood can deeply affect their child for LIFE! So while I knew this period of my child’s life was important, I was surprised at how much I can (and therefore must) influence their lifelong trajectory with a few smart choices at the very start. In this conversation, I sit down with Dave Asprey, the father of biohacking and creator of Bulletproof Coffee, to talk about optimizing pregnancy, early childhood, and the dad’s role in creating an environment where kids can thrive.

18. End Your Wife’s Resentment in 3 Steps
Dadicated Joe
Resentful women. Resentful wives. Resentful moms. This has become normal. Men hate it, feeling like they can never do enough and are always being criticized. Women hate it, feeling like they are constantly abandoned and left to do everything on their own. It seems impossible, but there is a solution! I’ve dealt with my wife’s resentment for years, and am happy to say I have reduced it by at least 90%! In this episode, I dig into how resentment shows up in parenting partnerships and why it’s not just a personal issue, it’s a systemic issue. Women often carry more household labor,...

Dadicated Joe
Our birth didn’t go as planned. We wanted a peaceful home birth. We ended up in the hospital In the middle of the night getting a C-section. And you know what? It was still a great birth—because we were prepared. I was prepared. I spent months learning everything I could about childbirth.

12. How to be a Rockstar Pregnant Father: A Step-by-Step Guide to Showing Up During Pregnancy
Dadicated Joe
For me, fatherhood began the day my wife knew she was pregnant. But what could I do? What was my role? I decided I was going to do everything I could to join in the pregnancy, embracing the idea that she wasn’t the only one pregnant, WE were pregnant. Of course men cannot actually be pregnant and we will never understand what women go through. But I set forth to handle the planning, prepping, feeding, listening, and learning—in every way and every moment possible.

11. Can a Man Ever Do Equal Housework to Mom?
Dadicated Joe
I value equality and have always tried to do my part of the housework, especially after we had our baby. But I wasn’t trained to see how much work there is, and how much unseen work my wife did every day. I especially didn’t understand how much thinking she was doing to hold it all together. That invisible labor and mental load began wearing her down and building resentment between us. The Fair Play system of household management changed everything. In this episode, I share how we implemented Fair Play at home—not just to divide chores, but to shift how we communicate, show up, and build...
info_outlineJoseph Anew is the kind of dad who cold plunges with his kids, does breathwork in a hyperbaric chamber, and ran a Spartan race 36 hours before this interview. But what really stuck with me was how much of his fatherhood was shaped by trauma, surrender, and choosing to do things differently—from barefoot healing in the Caribbean to escaping a hospital during COVID after a traumatic birth.
In this episode, we talk about what it means to parent with intention. Joseph shares the wild journey he and his wife went on—from raw vegan pregnancy to organ supplements and detox protocols—and how they used biohacking not as a shortcut, but as a way to align with what our DNA actually needs. We go deep on postpartum recovery, RIE parenting, repairing our own father wounds, and why running is the single best thing he does for his health.
In this episode, we discuss:
-
What are the best biohacks for new dads with limited time?
-
How can fathers support postpartum healing for their partner?
-
What is RIE (Resources for Infant Educators) parenting and how does it shape your child’s inner voice?
-
How do near-death experiences and trauma influence fatherhood?
-
What practices help fathers process identity shifts after becoming a parent?
Being dadicated isn’t about having all the answers.
It’s about showing up.
It’s about committing to the kind of dad—and man—you want to be, even when it’s hard. Especially when it’s hard.
Joe Carr is a dad to Della, husband to Serenity, co-founder of Serenity Kids baby food, and the voice behind Dadicated Joe.
