Founding Fathers: The Weekend Experience

A 2-Day Immersive Retreat for Ambitious Dads

Redefine fatherhood with clarity, connection, and purpose.

Does This Sound Familiar?

You love being a dad, but you still wonder…

"Am I present enough when I’m pulled in so many directions?”
"Will I stay close with my kids as they grow older?”
"How do I teach independence without abandoning them?"
"Am I just passing on the flaws I'm still working through?"
"How do I prepare them for a future I can't predict?"

If so you’re not broken. You’re an Ambitious Dad.
And this weekend is for you.

“Do you want a dad strategy or roadmap? Want deeper, more thoughtful conversations about fatherhood? This is the program for you.”

- Shantanu Bandhi, CFO, Aspira

This Isn’t a Seminar.
It’s a Reset.

Most dads don’t need more parenting tips. They need:

Space to slow down and reflect and build a vision for them
A brotherhood of men who actually get it. 
The courage and clarity to lead their families with intention.

At work, we obsess over vision statements, strategic plans, and KPIs. But at home? Too often we’re winging it — reacting to fires, stuck in the day-to-day, and forgetting to zoom out. The result: we manage our careers with purpose, but parent on autopilot.

This weekend changes that. It’s where you step back, reset, and design the kind of fatherhood you actually want to live — with the same clarity and intention you demand at work.

What You’ll Leave With

By the end of the weekend, you’ll have:

A Fatherhood Philosophy your personal compass for how to show up as a dad, partner, and leader. 
New family traditions that deepen connection and bring joy to everyday life. 
Practical strategies for shifting out of work mode and into dad mode without losing your cool.
A brotherhood of ambitious, emotionally honest dads who remind you you’re not doing this alone.
A redefined vision of success that your kids will inherit — one grounded in presence, not pressure.

Why This Weekend Is Different

There are plenty of retreats. There are plenty of coaches.
But here’s why this one works:

Global Leadership Expertise

I’ve spent two decades coaching CEOs on six continents, designing leadership programs for Fortune 500s, and teaching leadership at the MBA level.

Fatherhood Obsession

When I discovered I couldn’t become a biological father, I had to dismantle everything I thought I knew about fatherhood. That journey — and now raising my two boys — fuels everything I teach.

Proven Framework

The weekend is built on conversations with 150+ ambitious dads, plus my 12-week curriculum that’s already transformed fathers worldwide.

Real, Not Theoretical

This isn’t about tips. It’s about tools, rituals, and conversations that change how you show up at home — immediately..
