What She Needs
(That Nobody Taught You)
A live workshop for dads who want to support their partner—without guessing, getting it wrong, or being told what they're doing isn't enough
You don’t need to try harder.
You need to understand what actually helps in this season—and why no one ever taught you.
The Truth About Modern Dads
Most dads feel like they're failing.
The truth? You're doing more than any generation before you to show up, integrate, and support your family.
But you're doing it with less margin, less support, and almost no one to learn from. You probably didn't see it modeled. You definitely weren't trained for it.
You're not failing. You're under-equipped and overloaded.
And here's what the research shows—across neuroscience, attachment science, and family systems:
A father's steadiness is the single biggest lever for the wellbeing of his baby, his partner, and the whole family.
Not perfection. Not productivity. Steadiness.
That's learnable. That's what this workshop is for.
This matters more than you think:
Research shows: it's not about how much he does—it's whether his presence adds calm or requires management.
When moms don’t feel emotionally supported, resentment builds quietly.
Babies are shaped by the emotional tone of the home, not just who does the tasks.
Research is clear: the factor that makes the biggest difference is a father who is emotionally safe and steady.
This workshop shows you what steadiness actually looks like—
and how to start practicing it right away.
This is for you if…
You want to support your partner and bond with your baby—but you’re not always sure how.
Stress is high at home, and you want tools to stay steady and lower the temperature.
You’re craving practical skills (not lectures) and a small circle of men who get it.
You value holistic care—nervous system health, communication, and teamwork.
You sense that when dad shows up steady, everyone breathes easier.
In this workshop, you’ll learn:
What she actually needs right now—and why she can't teach it to you
The difference between helping and actually relieving
Why emotional steadiness matters more than doing more
How your nervous system affects your partner and your baby
One or two concrete shifts you can start using immediately
This workshop is the starting point. One hour. Real clarity. Something you can use tonight.
For dads who want to go deeper, Steady Dads is a 6-week small group where men practice these skills together—without putting more weight on their partner.
Men learn this best from other men.
That’s what the group is for.
Come learn what actually matters in this season—and how to start showing up differently right away.
-
Expecting and new dads who want to support their partner without guessing, overstepping, or needing constant direction. Dads who care about the emotional climate of their home.
-
Clarity. You’ll understand what your partner likely needs most right now, why it matters, and one or two concrete shifts you can start using immediately.
-
No. This is designed to reduce pressure, not add to it. Small shifts, high impact—not more to-dos.
-
No. It's practical, grounded, and skill-based. Rooted in research and real life, not theory
-
If it’s helpful, you’ll be invited to continue this work in a small group of dads who are practicing these skills together. No pressure—just a clear next step if you want it.
-
No. Listening counts. Participation is always optional, and most guys find it easier once they realize they’re not the only one thinking these things.

A Personal Note from Mike:
Early fatherhood asks a lot of us. We want to show up for our partner and our baby—but most of us never learned how.
That's why I built this workshop. So dads can be honest, learn what actually works, and show up differently this week—not someday.
You don't have to be perfect. You just have to be present and steady. We'll practice what that looks like together.
I'd love to help you become the man your family already sees in you.
