For this special episode of Houston Moms on the Move, we’re turning the spotlight on to a dad in honor of Father’s Day this month. Who better to kick it off than Raheel Ramzanali? Host Meagan Clanahan sits down with this dynamic dad of two to talk parenting, balance, identity, and his incredible career journey through Houston’s media, sports, and podcasting scenes.
Raheel shares what it’s like juggling hosting City Cast Houston, UFC fight nights, stadium gigs, and still being that dad who shows up for his daughters, his community, and himself. From honest reflections on being a first-generation immigrant parent to modeling service, confidence, and hustle for his kids, this episode is funny, raw, and full of heart.
Highlights:
- How Raheel finds balance as a husband, dad, and media professional
- Why he left traditional media to be more present at home
- Parenting differently than his immigrant parents—on purpose
- Why he brings his daughters to volunteer and even build vision boards
- Houston food, favorite dad moments, and more
“This is the phase I’m in. And I’m okay if my kids’ success becomes part of my identity right now.”
