A note before you apply

You can read another article. You can bookmark another podcast. You can tell yourself you'll get to it when the season slows down. You already know the season is not going to slow down — the homework still needs signing, the conversation about the screen still needs having, the small questions your son asks in the car still need a man at the wheel who is paying attention. This page is not for fathers who want more content. It is for the man who has decided that the next twelve weeks are going to look different from the last twelve — and who wants a structured room, a real coach, and eleven thousand other fathers doing the same work alongside him.

The Four Steps

What Happens After You Apply

A clear path from this page to your first cohort call. No mystery, no drip sequence, no "we'll be in touch."

  1. 01

    Confirmation Email

    Within an hour, you receive a short note acknowledging your application — plus a one-page overview of the cohort's weekly time commitment so you can sanity-check your schedule.

  2. 02

    15-Minute Fit Call

    A coaching team member calls you — or schedules a time that works. This is a mutual fit conversation, not a sales call. We talk through your son's age, your biggest struggle, and whether the next cohort is the right room.

  3. 03

    Cohort Placement

    You are placed into a cohort of 14–18 fathers with sons in a similar age band. You receive your week-one packet — a printed-style study guide, the 30-Minute Framework reference card, and access to the private cohort channel.

  4. 04

    Week-One Kickoff

    The cohort opens with a 45-minute live session led by one of the seven coaches. After that, you settle into the rhythm: thirty minutes a week, one conversation with your son, one check-in with your cohort.

The Next Cohort

The next cohort opens Monday.
32 seats. 12 weeks.

Every cohort we have run has filled. The fathers who wait for the "right time" usually end up applying for the one after that — and then the one after that. The right time is the season you are already in.
