Owner and founder of Black Seahorse Kustoms out of Lincoln, Nebraska, Nick Brown is a dad on a mission to make a positive impact and be the best version of himself.
His latest efforts to do just that include feeding the homeless on Fridays at the city mission, and back in April when we recorded this conversation, Nick was about to embark on a 12-mile backpack hike to raise awareness for the Lincoln Public Schools Extra Mile Walk.

Nick and I talk about some masculinity myths that he actively pushes back against and some communication challenges a lot of men face.
He fills us in on the challenging but rewarding experience of being a foster dad.
And this episode just so happens to include one of my favorite stories from this season . . .
Nick shares a story from his high school days where he felt his worth and value being dismissed, and what he did instead to create his own value.
It's a story of integrity and of turning a negative event into a positive experience. Of how personal sacrifice can show others just how much you value them.
This conversation highlights Nick while he's busy trying to highlight everyone else around him.
All this and more...
This... is Dads Interrupted.
