There’s no manual for fatherhood. Especially not for Black men navigating the pressures of career, community and raising children in a world that often overlooks their nuance.

Dadding While Black was born from that gap. It’s a platform, a perspective and a purpose. Created by a Black father who knows the juggle firsthand, this space exists to offer guidance, inspiration and practical support to others doing the same.

Through essays, coaching frameworks, personal stories and real-life strategies, DWB dives deep into what it actually means to show up. Not just as a provider, but as a nurturer, a leader, a listener and a learner.

Here, we cover it all from balancing career ambitions with bedtime stories, to mentoring young athletes with patience, to simply giving yourself grace on the hard days.

This isn’t about being perfect.
It’s about being present.

Whether you're a new dad, a seasoned pro or somewhere in between, this is a space to grow alongside your kids and with other fathers and supporters who get it.

Welcome to Dadding While Black.
We’re glad you’re here.
