What family traditions and experiences have shaped who you are today? In this episode of the Dads Making a Difference podcast, Cam explores the powerful influence of family practices and traditions, especially during the Christmas season. Reflecting on his childhood, Cam shares vivid memories of navigating economic hardships, a life-changing moment involving alcohol, and the unique combination of religious and secular traditions that defined his upbringing.

He opens up about his decision to quit alcohol—not as a judgment of others but as a personal choice for better health and well-being. He also reflects on the impact of his parents: his mother's love for Christmas and his father's quiet but meaningful influence on his life. Cam also discusses the importance of being a present and resilient father, leaning on faith during challenging moments, and instilling values that will shape the next generation.
