Serena Williams’ husband Alexis Ohanian makes his feelings known about being away as ‘business dad’

Serena Williams’ husband and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian recently opened up about how he copes with time away from his family, especially his two daughters. Being an entrepreneur and a businessman is not easy, as it involves a lot of travel for meetings, dealerships, and whatnot.

However, staying away from the family for a long time remains to be extremely tough for Alexis Ohanian. During an appearance on the Business Dad podcast, Ohanian talked about the one thing that keeps him going when he has to travel away from his two daughters, Olympia and Adira River.

In the latest episode with Parker Conrad, CEO of Rippling, the Reddit co-founder talked about the bittersweet moment of saying goodbye to her daughters and receiving the heartfelt ‘goodbye hug.’

He even recalled a recent goodbye hug with his daughter Olympia that lasted extra long, as he sensed that her dad would be gone for a while. Ohanian said, “I had a goodbye from Olympia. It was the first goodbye hug. I really think she could process, like, oh, Dad’s gonna be gone for a little bit. And I was feeling it, and I know she was feeling my energy, and it was like an extra hug. And I was like, God, this sucks.”

During the conversation, Ohanian also asked for some advice from the podcast host as to how he could ease out these difficult moments. To which, Connor shared his own experience, explaining how small gestures such as waving goodbye from the window to his school-going daughter and remaining consistent with that help big time.

Interestingly enough, this is not the first time Ohanian has said something about his daughters. During an appearance on ‘On Purpose with Jay Shetty‘ podcast in January, Ohanian expressed how he wants his daughters Olympia and Adira River to appreciate and recognize his efforts to build a more inclusive online space such as Reddit.

Serena Williams’ husband Alexis Ohanian said, “I still think the internet can bring out the best in us; I do. I can also accept the conflicting view that it enables the worst of us. And I obviously want to be on the side of the former. So, I try to use my platform the best.

Continuing further, he added, “I think I have to remain an optimist because I’m still optimistic about humanity, and these tools are just a reflection of society. At the end of the day, we all want to live decent lives; we want our kids to live possibly better lives. I want to spend my years supporting all this stuff that my girls will be proud of.”

With that being said, there is no denying that Alexis Ohanian is inspired by his two daughters and has been quite vocal about the same.
