Working from home sounds simple—until kids, calendars, meals, meetings, and relationships all collide. In this episode, I sit down with Thom Gibson, a work-from-home dad and social media strategist, to talk honestly about what it really takes to make remote work and family life coexist.Thom is the founder of WFH Dads, and his perspective is grounded not in theory, but in lived experience—raising two young kids, navigating shared schedules with his wife, and building a workday that leaves room for presence, not just productivity.Six Discussion PointsHow Thom transitioned into working from home during the pandemic—and why he stayedWhy default schedules matter more than perfect plansThe overlooked power of clear boundaries between “work time” and “family time”How simplifying meals reduces daily decision fatigueWhy Thom changed his journaling practice after 15 yearsThe thinking behind the Six-Hour Workday Playbook for dadsThree Connection PointsWFH DadsGet The Six-Hour Workday PlaybookHow to Build a Powerful Journal in 3 Steps (Starting Today)This conversation reinforced something I’ve believed for a long time: structure isn’t the enemy of freedom—it’s what makes freedom possible. Thom’s approach to work-from-home life is thoughtful, practical, and refreshingly human, and I think a lot of parents—especially dads—will see themselves reflected in this episode.
