REBL Dads: What Successful Fathers Struggle to Say with Derek Notman and H. Adam Holt

Send us Fan Mail

What if the most important leadership role of your life is the one you were never trained for?

In this episode of PROpulsion LIVE, I sit down with Derek Notman and H. Adam Holt from REBL Dads for a conversation about fatherhood, ambition, leadership, loneliness, and what it takes to show up better at home.

This is not a formal interview. Derek, Adam, and I know each other well, and I was privileged to spend time with them on Necker Island as part of the REBL Dads journey. So this conversation feels more like friends sitting together and speaking openly about what many fathers carry in silence.

We talk about where REBL Dads started, why Derek and Adam felt the need to build a brotherhood for fathers, how Sir Richard Branson became part of the story, and the challenge he gave them: how are you going to help more dads?

That challenge led to the new book, REBL Dad: Responsible Entrepreneur Balanced Leader Dad, built from interviews with 103 fathers from around the world. The book includes more than 300 action items to help fathers move from knowing what matters to doing something about it.

In this conversation, we explore:

Where the REBL Dads idea started
The first Necker Island gathering
Sir Richard Branson’s challenge
The loneliness many successful fathers carry
Lessons from 103 fathers
The principles behind the book
Moving from knowing to doing
Where to get the book

REBL Dad is available on Kindle, with the physical book available from June.
