Our guest this week is Dan Roth of San Diego, CA who is a seasoned human resource consultant, professional speaker and perhaps most importantly, father of twin girls, who are both autistic.

Dan and his wife, Jennifer, have been married for 8 years and are the proud parents of 6 ½ year old twin daughters Haley & Brooklyn, who are autistic.

In addition to being the parent to young autistic twins daughters, Dan has become somewhat of an expert in the area of body dysmorphia, which he experienced as a child and young adult.

On January 30, 2026, Dan was privileged to make a TEDx Talk at the Houston Dream To Dare event. The topic of his talk was: How We Can Shape our Children through Transparency.

It's an authentic and upligting story that deserves more attention all on this episode of the SFN Dad to Dad Podcast.

Special Fathers Network –
SFN is a dad to dad mentoring program for fathers raising children with special needs. Many of the 800+ SFN Mentor Fathers, who are raising kids with special needs, have said: “I wish there was something like this when we first received our child’s diagnosis. I felt so isolated. There was no one within my family, at work, at church or within my friend group who understood or could relate to what I was going through.”

SFN Mentor Fathers share their experiences with younger dads closer to the beginning of their journey raising a child with the same or similar special needs. The SFN Mentor Fathers do NOT offer legal or medical advice, that is what lawyers and doctors do. They simply share their experiences and how they have made the most of challenging situations.
