In this heartfelt Father’s Day reflection, executive coach and Midlife Remix host Steven Miyao and Mark Hsu share a deeply personal look at the tension so many midlife parents face—trying to be present for our kids, support aging parents, sustain our partnerships, show up at work, and still somehow stay connected to ourselves.They explore the quiet question behind all the doing:- What will my children remember about me?- Not what we provided or achieved, but how we made them feel.It is a powerful conversation with author and father Mark Hsu, whose book Please Open in the Event of My Death began as a way to preserve his voice for his young daughters. Steven and Mark explore parenting, presence, fear, and legacy—not from a place of certainty, but from a willingness to ask better questions.Watch this video if you’re navigating:- Midlife transitions and identity shifts- The pressure to “do it all” as a parent, child, and professional- What it means to lead with presence instead of perfectionThe emotional work behind intentional fatherhood and leadershipWhether you’re a parent, caregiver, or someone reflecting on who you want to be, this video invites you to pause, notice, and choose presence over performance.Chapters: Mark Hsu on Legacy, Fear, and Fatherhood00:00 – The Plane Thought: A Father's Fear00:46 – Why the Book Matters01:22 – Rethinking Success in Midlife03:01 – Parenting by Reflection03:39 – Coaching Through Mistakes: The Volleyball Story04:53 – Presence in the Age of Distraction07:26 – The Power of Walking Together09:03 – Using Fear to Move Forward10:38 – Helping Kids (and Adults) Cope with Uncertainty12:29 – Letting Go of Control as a Parent14:00 – The School Morning Breakthrough15:27 – Letting Kids Fail: The Modern Parent Dilemma16:32 – Cultivating Curiosity and a Sense of Adventure17:38 – What Legacy Really Means19:26 – Modeling Growth: “We’re Works in Progress Too”20:03 – Where to Find the BookConnect with Steven Miyaowww.coachingmetta.comInstagram: @CoachingMetta#StevenMiyao #MarkHsu #CoachingMetta #MidlifeRemix #FathersDayReflection #ParentingInMidlife #LegacyWork #ExecutiveCoach #LiveWithIntention #PresenceOverPerfection #PleaseOpenInTheEventOfMyDeath #fathersday2025 #fathersday #fathersday
