Romal Tune is joining us on the Busboys stage to share the power to heal wounds men may not even know they carry. And with no pretense, he and Jordan recount their own "I Wish My Dad" interview, which helped them chart the way toward a transformed relationship. Tune also offers us strategies and prompts for initiating our own "I Wish My Dad" conversations. In the pages of this book, he invites us into the room as the men unpack relationships with their fathers, learn to work through emotional pain, recount moments of tenderness and care, and describe risks they took to heal and connect with their fathers.
This led him to sit down with seventeen men of diverse ages, ethnicities, and socioeconomic backgrounds for "I Wish My Dad" conversations.
He began to wonder if other men also longed to have vulnerable conversations with their fathers-about good memories, about pain, and about what their relationship could still become. After years of inner work via therapy and faith, Tune realized that neither he nor his dad possessed what they needed to live up to each other's expectations. He and his dad connected briefly when he was a teenager, and then had no relationship for decades. Author Romal Tune provides a tour de force for fathers and sons about healing the unfinished business between them through vulnerable and healing conversations.Tune was raised mostly without a father.
