Episode Summary

Why do so many working dads feel exhausted even when they’re doing everything "right"?Dr. Matt Campbell believes the problem is not that most people are broken. It’s that they’re depleted.Matt is a clinical psychologist and creator of the Primal Five Framework, which focuses on five foundational areas that shape how we show up every day: sleep, sunlight, movement, connection, and consumption. His work explores how modern life quietly pulls us away from the things our minds and bodies were built for and how that depletion affects everything from patience and anxiety to parenting and meaningful work.Matt shares how to:Recognize when exhaustion is really a capacity problem instead of a time problemImprove work life balance without trying to overhaul your entire life overnightBuild routines that reduce decision fatigue and make healthy habits easierFind practical ways to incorporate movement into an already busy scheduleCreate meaningful connection instead of surface-level social interactionBreak cycles of depletion, irritability, anxiety, and overwhelmMatt brings a thoughtful and deeply practical perspective to fatherhood, parenting, and the reality of trying to stay healthy while balancing work, family, and daily responsibilities.Dig DeeperOur Epidemic of Loneliness and IsolationScooby-Doo Theme SongThunder RoadYou Never Even Called Me by My NameFollow MattOn his website: https://www.ourprimal5.com/On his newsletter: https://our-primal-5.kit.com/9b41ee5325On Instagram: https://instagram.com/ourprimal5On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matt-campbell-a5b22910/Get the Our Primal 5 Workbook: https://amzn.to/48Qoe9hFollow Gap to GigOn Instagram: instagram.com/gaptogigOn TikTok: tiktok.com/@gaptogigOn X: x.com/gaptogigOn YouTube: youtube.com/@gaptogigOn your podcast player of choice: https://rss.com/podcasts/gaptogig/Sign up for the Gap to Gig newsletter: gaptogig.comFollow MichaelOn LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/themichaeljacobs/
