*** New single session Dad Zone Thriving Mapping Session now available - just $99***

One 60-minute Zoom call will change your life, I personally guarantee it!

Dad Zone Coaching is a great way to lean further into your journey from the Dude Zone to the Dad Zone and beyond. My unique methodology, based on Polarity Coaching, isn’t “therapy,” nor is it just me listening and nodding (although I do listen and nod quite a bit). Coaching is just like you think it sounds. We get together to collaborate and explore all the particulars of your unique situation. We identify your strengths and play into those. We find some underdeveloped areas and build them out. We work together to help you create the best plan for building a successful path to the Dad Zone, and then lay out the foundations for thriving once you get there.

You have your Fatherhood goals, I help you get more clear on them and assist your efforts to bring them to fruition. Check out my current Dad Zone Thriving offerings below, pop over to Catalyst to learn more about my broader Executive Coaching opportunities or go ahead and book a complimentary 30-min Discovery Call right now. Let’s team up and make it happen!

1-on-1 Dad Zone Thriving Mapping Session

Just $99, and backed with a 100% satisfaction guarantee

This new Coaching offering is quick, easy, and immediately empowers you to take more control of your capacity to truly thrive in the Dad Zone.

What is Dad Zone Thriving? It starts with the ability to get deeply rooted in your own authenticity, your own identity, and your own powerful connection to the “Real You.” I call this your Sacred Individuality. Only by first strengthening this core component of your identity are you then able to fully embrace and embody all the new demands, obligations, and opportunities that come from a true Partnership with Mama as you step into Fatherhood. These new responsibilities all call forth what I call the “Role You.”

Skillfully embodying these 2 powerful competing forces is difficult. Many guys find themselves getting lost and stuck the Dud Zones of Wimptytown and Jerkville repeatedly, sometimes for just a minute, other times for a few days or more.

My Dad Zone Thriving Mapping Session not only helps you stay out of those Dud Zones in the first place, but it also helps you discover your Early Warning Signs to alert you when you go astray and provides you with immediate Action Steps to take to get you back on the path. Just $99 for a limited time only.

I fully guarantee that this single Coaching session will change your life for the better with a no-questions-asked, full money back refund. Iron clad guarantee. 100%. Boom.

Schedule your free 30-minute Discovery Call today to see if this single 1-on-1 Dad Zone Mapping Session is right for you.

Want a sneak peek at some of the video shorts coming up in my new Welcome To Fatherhood video series?

What's Welcome To Fatherhood all about? The tagline is “better connected, better prepared,” but the bigger journey for us guys is moving out of the Dud Zone, into the Dad Zone, and avoiding the Dud Zones. Check out this short video of Big Idea #3 from my WTF video series to see what moving from Dude Zone to Dad Zone is all about, and how avoiding the Dud Zones is going to be your constant challenge.

Teamwork is your key to success when making your way to the Dad Zone and then finding ways to thrive once you get there as partner with Mama and co-parent to your new baby. But what do you mean by "team," and how might that be different from what Mama means? What does it mean to “team up” together in ways that strengthen your relationship but preserve your sense of self as well? Big Idea #8 from my WTF video series sets you up for success.
