In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, Young Han sits down with Brian Schwartz — founder of SIZE, an advisory group of former C-suite operators supporting 60+ late-stage technology and consumer companies. Brian shares his global career journey across Expedia Group, DreamWorks Animation, and international markets, and opens up about how becoming a father reshaped his priorities, routines, and long-term plans.

Brian reflects on raising a young daughter while building a high-performance career, the role of travel in expanding his children’s worldview, and why financial readiness, stability, and aligned values mattered deeply in his family-planning decisions. He also explores the realities of modern parenting: evolving schedules, increasing responsibilities, and the need for a supportive partner, strong self-awareness, and intentional balance.
