This Father\’s Day, The Dad Project is proud to shine a light on the often-overlooked emotional journeys of men and fathers across the world. 

At a time traditionally focused on celebration, The Dad Project offers something deeper: a call to action, a platform for healing, and a powerful reminder that strength also lies in vulnerability.

Founded by award-winning creative director, entrepreneur, and storyteller Naroop, The Dad Project is a groundbreaking movement redefining how we talk about men\’s mental health. Through multimedia storytelling, raw and heartfelt podcast episodes, and soon-to-launch men\’s meet ups, it tackles head-on the long-standing neglect surrounding men\’s emotional wellbeing.

The Dad Project was born from Naroop\’s deeply personal journey, shaped by childhood bullying due to an eye condition, the heartbreak of a 26-year relationship ending, and the challenging transition into single fatherhood. 

These life experiences, coupled with over two decades of creative industry expertise, now fuel his mission: to create a safe, empowering space where men can be seen, heard, and healed.

In honour of Father\’s Day, The Dad Project is launching a special campaign across its platforms, encouraging men to share their stories, support one another, and embrace emotional honesty, whether as fathers, sons, brothers, or friends.

The Dad Project\’s Key Initiatives:

• The Podcast: Emotionally gripping and widely available on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts, the show features real men sharing raw, transformative stories. Each episode, hosted by Naroop, explores themes like resilience, emotional trauma, fatherhood, self-discovery, and mental health recovery.
• Men\’s Meet Up Groups (Coming Soon): Regular in-person gatherings designed to provide judgment-free, professionally guided spaces for men to talk, connect, and grow. Sessions will include input from mental health experts, coaches, and inspiring guest speakers.
• Advocacy & Awareness: The Dad Project exists to dismantle outdated ideas of masculinity, promote emotional intelligence, and shift public discourse toward compassion, support, and mental resilience.

While Father\’s Day often centres on appreciation, The Dad Project invites society to go one step further—to reflect on the invisible pressures many men face, and to offer not just gratitude, but understanding. Whether navigating career stress, emotional hardship, or the weight of modern fatherhood, men deserve spaces to heal and grow.
