Ngai Pindell: Navigating Uncertainty as a Father
“As men, we often put on a face of bravado and project confidence, but ultimately you make the best decisions you can and hope that they’re right. What I usually tell the kids is that I’m perfectly willing to make mistakes, but I don’t make them twice.”
Today’s guest on 2 Dads 1 Car is Ngai Pindell, an educator, current Dean at the Peter A. Allard School of Law, and father of two young boys.
In this episode, Ngai shares stories about his family’s move from sunny Las Vegas to Vancouver in the Pacific Northwest. As he watches his sons go through the growing pains of adjusting to a new environment, Ngai discusses his growing sense of pride and trust in his sons as a father. On the topic of independence, Ngai also recounts how his experiences as a university administrator and educator have contextualized his supportive approach to guiding his sons into independence and young adulthood.
