**Redefining Strength: Shawn Brown on Fatherhood, Fitness & Evolved Masculinity**
What *is* an evolved caveman, anyway? Is he jacked and stoic? Or is he present, emotionally intelligent, and badass enough to raise tiny humans *and* challenge outdated definitions of manhood?
In this powerful, refreshingly real episode, Dr. John chops it up with Shawn Brown — a former gym manager turned full-time stay-at-home dad who’s lifting both dumbbells *and* diapers with grace, grit, and presence.
Raised by a tough-as-nails cop dad outside Philly and shaped by years in football and fitness, Shawn’s journey is about embracing *both* sides of masculinity — the warrior *and* the nurturer. He’s breaking the mold in the best possible way.
We get into:
– How “old-school toughness” meets “new-school growth”
– The real talk on being a full-time dad while launching a business
– Lessons from training clients with special needs — and how empathy = strength
– Why softness isn’t weakness (and why men need both)
– What it means to evolve without losing your edge — physically, emotionally, and spiritually
– The daily juggle of toddlers, entrepreneurship, and intentional fatherhood
**About Shawn Brown:**
With 12+ years in fitness, Shawn worked his way up from personal trainer to training general manager. Over the last five years, he’s focused on coaching individuals with special needs — including those with Autism and Down syndrome — blending discipline, compassion, and connection.
Now, Shawn is a full-time dad to two young daughters and the founder of *The Parent Supply Company* — an eCommerce brand built by a parent, for parents deep in the trenches of real life.
