GLEN HENRY: THE POWER OF ACTIVE BLACK FATHERHOOD
Glen Henry (aka Beleaf in Fatherhood) isn’t just a proud Black dad of four – he’s a role model for thousands of people, celebrating the power of present, active parenting one vlog at a time. Discover Glen’s experience of Black fatherhood and his essential advice for dads.
There’s no rulebook for parenthood
When Glen started vlogging, he wasn't filming his kids for entertainment – he was doing it for education on how to be a good dad.
As a new, active dad, Glen had no idea what was normal or unusual, so he posted videos to see if other parents were going through the same amazing ups and downs. When people started responding and encouraging Glen to keep sharing his experiences, he knew he wanted to provide support for dads and inspire other parents on the same journey.
Here’s some essential advice Glen learnt along the way on active parenting and how to be a good dad.
