EP 81 - The Change That Triggered Adam’s Old Depression Struggles

In this episode of More Than Reality, Adam and Danielle open up about a recent argument that uncovered something deeper—old struggles with depression and the weight of major life changes. As their family prepares to transition into homeschooling, Adam shares how the thought of missing everyday moments with his kids triggered emotions he didn’t expect… and brought him back to one of the hardest seasons of his life. From the early days of having quintuplets, working long hours in oil & gas, and silently battling depression—to now navigating change, identity, and fatherhood—this conversation gets real about what men often don’t talk about. 💧 Cure Hydration You can drink water all day and still feel dehydrated—your body needs electrolytes to actually absorb it.
