In this episode, Dom joins the conversation to explore mental health, awareness, and modern parenting — with ADHD woven in as part of a wider discussion.
Drawing on his work and perspective, he shares an approach rooted in curiosity about the mind rather than control of behaviour. The discussion moves beyond labels to explore how greater presence, emotional attunement, and self-awareness can transform not only how we support children, but how we understand ourselves as parents.
Touching on ADHD as one expression of how differently minds can work, the conversation opens into a broader reflection on mental wellbeing — questioning how we define attention, success, and “normality” in a fast-paced world. It highlights how principles of mindful awareness can reshape education, relationships, and society more widely, placing emotional experience and human connection at the centre.
Whether you’re a parent, educator, or simply interested in living with more awareness and presence, the episode offers a grounded, compassionate reframe of both parenting and the mind itself. Listen to the episode on Spotify here!

In this interview on Dubai Eye with Helen Farmer, Dom explores conscious parenting through the often-overlooked lens of fatherhood.
Reflecting the themes of Diary of a Mindful Dad, the conversation looks at the deeper emotional journey of being a parent — and how greater awareness and presence can transform the relationship we have with our children and ourselves.
Alongside this, the discussion offers a grounded look at the realities of modern parenting — how to stay present amidst the chaos, make the most of fleeting moments with our children, and navigate the challenges without losing ourselves in the process. With warmth and realism, it points toward a way of parenting that is both conscious and sustainable.
Whether you’re a father, parent, or simply interested in personal growth, the interview offers a thoughtful reflection on how we can show up with greater presence and move through the parenting journey with more clarity — and a little more sanity. Check out part one above, and parts two and three on Dom’s youtube.
Featured review
“Subtitled ‘One Man’s Adventure Into the Madness of Modern Parenthood’, this is a well-written and instructive guide on what to expect and what not to expect when you become a parent, and its contents will be recognisable to all parents, even if they have had different experiences. The book charts in diary form the phases of conception, birth, and the experiences during the first year of his daughter’s life. It is a rollercoaster ride with a background motif of mindfulness, which is emotionally tested to its limits in the stress of everyday life, but it also reminds practitioners to pay attention to what is happening in the present moment. Ironically, writing this book militated against this, but the result is eminently worthwhile from the reader’s point of view and can be highly recommended to all prospective parents.” David Lorimer, Chair of the Galileo Commission
