94.1FM: EQUALITY, FATHERHOOD & HUMAN CONNECTION

Jeremy Macvean is like a babushka doll...a man inside a man inside a man: father, advocate for equality, champion of men’s health and wellbeing, etc, etc, etc ... every layer reveals another depth of care, insight, and purpose.

During our live to air radio chat on “What Does It Feel Like, Being You Today?” at 94.1FM 3WBC, we explored how modern fatherhood is reshaping the conversation about equity in the home, workplace, community and beyond. Jeremy’s lens is clear: when we talk about men’s health and wellbeing, we’re not just talking about men, but partners, children, families, friends, communities ... it's about all of us.

Work Like A Motherfather

Jeremy is a dad on a mission to get all dads showing up and giving fatherhood a go from skin-to-skin at birth all the way through life. Co-founder of The Father Hood, today's go-to platform for the modern dad.

HUMAN COGS

Jeremy Macvean is a marketing and communications expert who has held senior roles at Clemengers, Y&R and Austereo among others, before deciding he wanted to use his comms expertise and insights for good not evil. This realisation led Jeremy to share his marketing and digital nous with the Royal Women’s Hospital, Peter McCallum Cancer Centre and Movember, and in 2019 Jeremy co-founded The Father Hood, a dad-focused media platform to shine the light on the importance of fatherhood and to help guide others to thrive and survive in the only job that really counts.

THE ONGOING SEASONS OF PARENTHOOD

Often we talk about those early stages of returning to work after baby but the reality is there are ongoing seasons to parenthood, and with it new paths to navigate and new roles to play as parents.

RAE BONNEY - MEN’S HEALTH

Recognising that approximately 20% of Australia’s population is made up of dads, I got together with Jeremy Macvean and we talked about his latest global initiative, The Father Hood.

The Father Hood, is a media platform and community, designed to help dads survive and thrive. The brand encourages fathers to navigate with less stress and more confidence, using language and approach to help dismantle the negative stereotype of ‘dad’. Redefining the modern experience, where men are raising kids in all kinds of environments.

Jeremy and his team believe that becoming a father is the greatest opportunity a man can get. They also get that fatherhood changes you - fatherhood changes everything.
