Team Dad Sarasota

06/01/2026

📣 June is Men’s Health Month — and Team Dad Sarasota is showing up strong! 💪

All month long, we’re celebrating and supporting the men in our community with reminders and practical tips focused on mental well‑being, stress management, and building a healthier mindset. Every message comes straight from our Team Dad curriculum — simple, real‑life strategies dads already know but benefit from revisiting. These small habits help dads stay grounded, resilient, and connected.

👨‍👧‍👦 Why highlight Men’s Health Month?
Because when dads prioritize their own health, they’re better able to show up for the people who matter most.

📲 Follow along each day for easy, meaningful tips that can make a real impact. Let’s keep growing stronger, healthier, and better — together.

A community driven celebration empowering healthier beginnings for Sarasota’s mothers and babies

12/12/2025

Two years ago, I walked into Healthy Start – TEAM Dad with purpose… and a whole lot of fear.

Today, I’m grateful.

Over these two years, I’ve nearly conquered my fear of public speaking, found my voice, and even stepped onto the airwaves with a radio show — something I never imagined for myself.

Along the way, I became a doula and a breastfeeding educator, but more importantly, I became present for fathers, families, and communities that deserve support and respect.

TEAM Dad gave me more than a role — it gave me room to grow.

Special thanks to Alex and Carlos Yancy Jr. for your patience, leadership, and real community impact through hands-on recruitment and support.

Thank you to the Ladies of the Healthy Start Coalition, the home visitors, the board members, and Healthy Start ladies and Billion Dollar Bill — your support, consistency, and belief in this mission are truly appreciated.

Grateful for the leadership, the brotherhood, and the families who trust us with meaningful moments.

Two years in — and I’m just getting started.
