Podcast - Episode 43 - What About Newborn Fathers?
You Are Here Because You Believe Birth Is About Making Mums Too.
Interview with Mike Dyson
As a Newborn Mother, you are being invited to reinvent yourself because when a baby is born so is a mother, and the birth of a mother can be more intense than childbirth. You'll learn how to find peace and joy in the first 40 days after birth and how your postpartum experience can change your life.
Mike is passionate about healthy masculinity and sees a bright future for Australian men where strong mateships support us to live happy healthy lives. After more than a decade supporting individuals as a Chinese medicine practitioner, Mike moved into working with groups out of a desire to help men to connect. Mike wants blokes to truly know what it feels like when your mates really have your back - mates that can support you when you’re down and lift you up to be the best you can be.
Mike is a senior facilitator with the Rites of Passage Institute on their Making of Men camps. He also works with schools around Australia on the Rite of Passage programs such as the groundbreaking On Queenslea Drive program at Christ Church Grammar School. He has previous experience developing social and emotional learning programs and training facilitators to deliver these programs in schools across WA.
Mike is a dedicated husband, a proud father of two amazing daughters, a dog lover, a baritone ukulele player, a pretty average basketballer and a tortured, yet loyal Fremantle Dockers supporter. Good Blokes Co. allows Mike to share his love of the Australian bush and to hike, laugh, invent ridiculous games, muck around and most of all to sit around the fire and share the real stuff – what’s truly going on for men and boys behind the mask of masculinity.

Mike and I discuss the rites of passage for fathers and how men’s brains change when they participate in parenting. We explore negative fatherhood and motherhood stereotypes and how to help families overcome them.
