About The Sage Dad and Smart, Beautiful and Important Mom
Sage’s mom isn’t a social mediaperson. She prefers privacy, and I deeply respect that. Just because you don’t see her or hear about her often doesn’t mean she isn’t a vital part of our family. In fact, quite the opposite—so much of what I get to do as a father, the fun moments I share with Sage, are made possible because she handles the day-to-day tasks that keep everything running smoothly. For that, I am forever grateful. The same was true of my first wife when we were raising our older kids. Mothers are some of the most special, incredible people in the world, and their contribution can never be overstated.
I created The Sage Dad as a fresh, empowering take on the "girl dad" journey, offering practical, actionable tips for dads raising daughters. Hosted by a father navigating the joys and challenges of fatherhood, this podcast focuses on building confidence, independence, and life skills in young girls. Each episode explores meaningful ways to engage with your toddler, helping them grow into strong, capable women. Whether it’s teaching problem-solving, fostering emotional intelligence, or encouraging resilience, Sage Dad Life is about shaping the next generation of powerful women, one intentional moment at a time. Join us for insightful conversations and real-world advice to help you become the supportive, forward-thinking dad your daughter deserves.
We’re building something special—a space where creativity, craftsmanship, and curiosity come together.
At the heart of it all is our Bakery, Sage and Dough, where you’ll find handcrafted sourdough, small-batch cookies, and other wholesome treats made with love (and a little help from our tiny baker-in-training).
Next is our Sage Dad Essentials Store, offering thoughtfully selected goods that help you nourish your body, care for yourself, and engage meaningfully with the little ones in your life. From beard oils and bath balms to wooden learning tools and games—everything is either handmade or handpicked to fit our philosophy of presence and purpose.
And now, we’re adding something totally new—an Interactive RISC-V Learning Lab for Kids! This playful, hands-on area introduces children (and curious grownups) to the basics of programming using the open-source RISC-V architecture. Featuring beginner-friendly lessons, games, and a built-in simulator that gives immediate feedback, it’s a safe and exciting way to explore how computers really work.
Whether you’re stopping by for fresh bread, discovering meaningful gifts, or learning how to code your very first “Hello, World!” in assembly—we’re creating a place that feeds the mind, body, and spirit.
