Generational Shift: A Workshop for Fathers

GENERATIONAL SHIFT

A Transformative Workshop for Fathers

Level up your parenting game with our 8-week in-person workshop tailored for dads. Discover essential tools, a solid support system, and a community that truly gets the unique challenges of fatherhood.

"We want to be good parents but our pasts hold us back."

-Gary John Bishop

Modern fatherhood is filled with more expectations and stressors than ever before:

Dads are navigating work-family balance, sleep deprivation, societal expectations, co-parenting challenges, financial stress, and loss of identity - all while trying to not damage their kids. To add to the complexity, they often have fewer resources, are overlooked in the parenting community, and rarely have someone to confide in about these struggles.

Generational Shift is a unique workshop designed to tackle these challenges head-on, offering fathers a dedicated space to connect, openly discuss their unique challenges, and equip themselves with the tools needed to become the fathers they want to be.

What You'll Gain

Neuroscience-Informed Parenting Skills
Deeper Connection with Your Children
Enhanced Parenting Confidence
Resources to Break Generational Patterns

What's Included In Generational Shift: Father's Workshop?

Each 2 hour session is a hybrid of learning and group discussion.

The Neuroscience of Parenting: Unravel the Science Behind Connection

In this workshop, we'll delve into the neuroscience of child development and relationships. Throughout the sessions, you'll discover:

How to interpret the needs behind your child's behavior.
Techniques to work with your nervous system, breaking free from stress cycles.
Strategies to enhance a sense of flow and reduce overwhelming moments within your family.

Each session builds a deeper understanding of how your nervous system interacts with others, empowering you navigate parenting challenges more naturally.

Group Therapy

Parenting challenges are diverse, and as we explore child development and the nervous system, they will naturally arise. That's why we've dedicated time in each session for group discussions to integrate the tools you're learning. Guided by a trained therapist, these discussions aim to:

Allow fathers to share effective strategies and parenting wins.
Cultivate a shared sense of support, reducing feelings of isolation.
Bridge the gap between the parenting you experienced and the vision you have for your children.

If the term "therapy" feels intimidating, rest assured—our aim is not to therapize you but to provide structured support for group discussions. No need to delve into deep frustrations; we're here to make the journey smoother, not add more stress.

Personalized Parenting Tool Kit

In every session, you'll acquire practical tools designed to demystify those inevitable "WTF!?!" moments in parenting. These tools are not only proven but also informed by neuroscience, drawing inspiration from the works of pioneers such as Dr. Stuart Shanker, Dr. Daniel Seigel, Dr. Kim John Payne, and other innovative leaders in the parenting field. You'll gain insights and techniques on:

Effective discipline that fosters connection.
Setting boundaries and navigating transitions.
Enhancing your child's resilience, motivation, and overall well-being.

Crafted over the 8-week duration, this toolkit is your guide to move beyond typical parenting scripts and quick fixes, providing a solid foundation for a more enriching and fulfilling parenting experience.

Betsy Lamberson

PARENTING EDUCATOR/CONSULTANT (She/her)

As the founder of New Roots Parenting, my passion is to support parents and caregivers on their conscious parenting journey by providing proven neuroscience-based tools. I believe that by empowering parents with knowledge about the nervous system and relationships, they can navigate the challenges of parenting more innately, and create their own parenting roadmap.

Having worked with many amazing dads, I noticed they often get overlooked in the parenting scene, despite having some of the most significant generational patterns to break. That's what inspired the creation of this workshop – a laid-back space where fathers can get the support they need to transform their parenting journey.

Clayton Norman

Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate LPCC, MA (he/him)

Hi, I’m Clayton, a therapist in the greater Denver area and founder of Colorado Creative Therapies. Breaking down the barriers to mental health for adolescents and men has become my biggest passion. I am committed to making therapy not only accessible but also a transformative and stigma-free experience, guiding people toward living fulfilling, balanced lives so that embracing a future defined by strength, self-awareness, and meaningful connections is possible. Before becoming a therapist, I spent 13 years working in outdoor education which has influenced much of my work. When I am not practicing therapy you could find me hiking with my dogs, birdwatching, skateboarding, or playing the guitar.

Curious if this workshop is a right fit for you or a father you love?
