Ep. 504 JD Denham: Fit After 40, Sobriety, and the Power of the Bloodline

In this raw and energizing episode of Fatherhood Field Notes, JD Denham shares the moment he realized he was “sick and tired of being sick and tired”—a pivotal shift that led him to reclaim his health, identity, and leadership as a father. JD opens up about transforming from a burned-out dad into a mission-driven man using discipline, faith, and fitness as his foundation. From leveraging peptides to spark vitality to the deeper work of emotional and spiritual alignment, this conversation is packed with truth, challenge, and inspiration for any man who wants to lead his family well.

“You can’t lead your family if you’re falling apart inside.” —JD Denham
