FOR DEVOTED DADS BUILDING GOOD LIVES AFTER DIVORCE
CONNECT WITH YOUR PEOPLE
For dads who are separated, going through divorce, or recently divorced,
you don’t have to do it alone.
This might be the hardest thing you’ve faced. The emotional intensity and the logistical overwhelm are formidable. And the people most directly affected are those you care about most deeply. You’re now pressed to do more with less. But….
you can absolutely come through with a great relationship with your kids.
This is a call to refine what matters to you, to work smarter, and to connect with others who get you.

ACT + CONNECT
Taking daily action to build health and momentum keeps you oriented forward through the challenges. Dads going through divorce who have even a few strong connections have better outcomes across the board for themselves and their kids.
MAKE A PLAN
Divorce can be overwhelming. Taking a few minutes daily to cultivate presence will help you focus your attention and resources on what’s most essential, manage stress, and create good outcomes.
Having a timeline with milestones and daily practices builds your capacity to move through short-term challenges and orient toward the life you want.
One-on-One
Coaching
Navigating divorce can be overwhelming, but a focused 1:1 meeting can help you:

Our facilitators bring professional training with years of experience to equip you with essential tools to emerge stronger, build a fulfilling life post-divorce, and connect with your kids while prioritizing your well-being.

WHAT CLIENTS SAY
“For the first time, I found someone who asked what I wanted. And challenged me to make it happen.
Andrew is a fearless advocate ready to dig into what really matters. Our work helped me envision specific goals and put plans in place to reach my financial and personal objectives.”
“I dramatically turned my life around.
I’m beyond grateful for the support that this group gave me during the process. I unpacked the beliefs, stories, and emotions that were holding me back from the purpose, finances, and relationships I wanted. I’d recommend this program to men working to show up better for our families, community, and selves.”
“Andrew’s mission is to help you get the outcomes you want.
He encourages me to trust myself, to step out of my comfort zone, and to connect deeply with what’s most important to me. Our work has helped me to take more ownership and to lead my life with authenticity and vulnerability. ”

Tools for Collaborative Communication
-
Some results will be apparent right away. Choosing to give yourself support and connection in a challenging moment, and to invest in your post-divorce life will cultivate a sense of confidence and hope that will shape the divorce process for you.
Habit-based practices like meditation and collaborative communication typically take 2-3 months to become established.
Other results will show themselves over the years to come. The choices you make during your divorce process will impact your life and your kids' lives for many years, so it is difficult to put a timeline to the results you can expect. This course is designed to support you in creating the conditions for a healthy relationship with your kids, better physical and emotional wellbeing, smoother communication with your former spouse, and a happy family life.
-
No. While our programs are designed to be therapeutic (supportive to your overall health and functioning), they are not therapy.
We highly encourage you to find a good licensed therapist to work with through your divorce. A great place to start is the Psychology Today Therapist Directory
-
No. If you are going through divorce, you should work with an attorney or licensed mediator you trust. We can help you advocate for yourself to get legal support you feel good about, and to develop your vision for your life after divorce so you can strategize with your attorney, financial advisor or doctor. One of the Participation Agreements in RE/Group and our Online Community is to not give advice, as most divorce and parenting groups are flooded with misguided (though well-intentioned) advice.
Members of this community have a lot of experience to share, but each divorce is unique and deserves the attention of professionals with the relevant qualifications.

We are currently working to be included in more employee benefit programs. Many companies are including divorce coaching in their wellness packages. Please feel free to put us in touch with your benefits coordinator or HR department, and we will follow up with them to see if your tuition can be covered.
-
We recommend you work through it consistently, planning on 1 Module per week. We realize the divorce and rebuilding process is not always straightforward though, so take the time you need. If you need support in accountability to work through it, consider joining one of the facilitated groups where dads support and challenge each other toward milestones in the process of building.
-
For the moment, no. Those programs are valuable in terms of basic communication and logistics, conflict prevention, as well as preventing situations where the kids are used against the other parent. This course includes some similar topics, but extends much further into the areas of growth, healing, and rebuilding.
-
Yes. We realize that this is a time of financial strain, so we offer a 2-Payment Plan for RE/Course and Monthly Payments for RE/Group.
