From Dad Rage to Calm Connection – The Course

You're SO tired of losing control and exploding at your kids over the smallest things.

Your Dad was like this, and you promised yourself you’d be different. You try to suppress your anger, telling yourself to "just stay calm," but you end up distracting yourself with work, social media, or even a drink - and still find yourself facing bursts of uncontrollable rage, emotional distance from your kids, and the stark reality of becoming the dad you swore you’d never be.

You’ve tried opening up to your partner or close friends, sharing your frustration and guilt, but it only left you feeling misunderstood or judged when they minimised the problem or offered surface-level advice like “just be more patient.” So, you retreat into silence and isolation, building even more resentment and disconnection.

Then you tried burying your emotions even deeper, convincing yourself that if you just stayed quiet, avoided triggers, or tried harder, things would get better. You relied on willpower to keep it all in, yet the frustration kept building under the surface.

The result? Bottled-up emotions that eventually exploded even worse. Your kids started pulling away, your partner felt disconnected, and the same cycle kept repeating itself no matter how hard you tried. So, you thought maybe you should dive into self-help books on anger control, reading strategies for staying calm, and trying different positive discipline techniques - but those books only taught you how to control your reactions, not heal the buried pain driving them. When their ‘expert advice’ didn’t work, you felt even more broken - like you were beyond help.


And OMG, is it supposed to be this hard? When is all this effort going to actually help you stay calm and connected with your kids, even when things get tough... so that you can be the dad you want to be - patient, present, and in control - without losing your cool? But what if there was another way? A way to stop fighting against your emotions and finally heal the root cause of your anger?

Imagine…

  • Waking up every morning feeling calm and grounded, knowing you have the emotional control to handle whatever the day throws at you. You now respond thoughtfully instead of reacting impulsively, and you feel proud of the dad you’re becoming—no more guilt or shame after losing your temper.

  • Spending quality time with your kids without the stress of emotional distance, feeling connected and present as you play, talk, and laugh together. Finally, you have a deep, trusting relationship with your children because you’ve learned how to break the cycle of anger, and they can feel it too.

  • Feeling a deep sense of pride and confidence in how far you’ve come, knowing that this transformation is not only making you a more patient and connected dad but is also positively impacting every area of your life—from your relationship with your partner to how you show up at work and in the world.


Sounds too good to be true? Keep reading. Let me show you exactly how... I never wanted to become my dad… and yet, there I was.

Today, I’m a calm, present, connected parent - and a mum who actually feels good about how she shows up for her kids.

I’ve broken free from the patterns I inherited and the behaviours I promised myself I’d never repeat.

I no longer rely on willpower to keep my cool or feel ashamed after I raise my voice. I feel proud of the way I parent - and, more importantly, I trust myself to handle the tough moments with empathy, not anger. Read more about my story.

Once I began to feel more at peace with myself - more connected to my kids, and even more understanding toward my dad—I knew this work wasn’t just for me. I wanted to know if others could experience the same shift I had, by using the tools and practices that helped me start my healing:

  • Self-reflection and journaling

  • Nervous system regulation

  • Reframing beliefs shaped by childhood experiences

  • And a trauma-informed lens on parenting and connection

So, I began sharing what I’d learned with other men—dads who, like mine, hadn’t been given the tools, and didn’t always have the language for what they were feeling… just the frustration and guilt when their anger got the better of them.

And something amazing happened.

"This is the first time I’ve actually understood my triggers. I always thought I had an anger problem - turns out I had an unhealed past I’d never looked at."


- Dad of 2

"The journaling and reflection work helped me connect the dots between how I was parented and how I’ve been reacting to my kids. I feel more in control than I have in years."


- Father of teens

"What changed everything was realising that I wasn’t a bad dad. I was a dad who’d never been taught how to deal with emotions - especially my own."


- Co-parenting Father

These weren’t quick-fix results.

They were the result of brave, consistent, inner work - and that’s what made the shift lasting.


That’s why I created this course.

To bring this process to more dads in a way that feels accessible, supportive, and grounded in real, sustainable change.

Not parenting hacks. Not behaviour charts.

But a guided journey that starts at the root - and finally makes space for healing.

My journey became the foundation for this course.

Who is this course for?

  • You are ready to stop white-knuckling your way through anger.

  • You’ve tried all the parenting strategies but still feel like they’re failing.

  • You want to understand what’s beneath the shouting and short fuse - so they can finally begin to change it.

  • You won’t find a list of behaviour hacks here.

What you will get.

You will find is everything I needed when I was stuck in the cycle:

  • Video trainings that explain how intergenerational trauma plays out in your parenting

  • Journaling prompts and guided reflections to help you explore what shaped your emotional patterns

  • Meditations and nervous system tools to help you pause before reacting - and respond with intention

  • Workbook exercises to shift your mindset from blame and punishment to empathy and connection

You’ll begin the healing process at a deeper level - without needing to dive head-first into therapy.

And if you decide, later on, that you want to go even deeper? That’s where I offer 1:1 Root Cause Therapy to help you process and release what still lingers.

Because this isn’t just about your kids - it’s about you.

It's bout your healing. Your story. Your future.

  • You don’t have to keep repeating what you were shown.

  • You don’t have to be the dad who carries it all and never speaks.

  • You don’t have to hold it together until you explode.

  • You can learn to understand yourself.

  • You can begin to heal.

And you can become the father you always wanted to be. Let’s start there—together.

Welcome to...

From Dad Rage to Calm Connection

The first self-paced online course that helps dads break the cycle of reactive parenting and start healing the root cause of their anger - so they can feel calm, in control, and connected with their kids in just a few weeks.

Here’s What You’ll Get Inside

This course is broken down into three transformative phases, each designed to help you understand your anger, regulate your emotions, and show up as the calm, connected father you want to be.

Phase 1: Understanding Your Anger

Get clear on why you react the way you do—so you can stop feeling ashamed, and start taking back control.

Breakthrough 1: Reframe your relationship with anger. Understand how anger is a protective response, not a character flaw, so that you can stop blaming yourself and start working with your emotions instead of against them.

Breakthrough 2: Trace your triggers back to the source. Identify how childhood patterns and past experiences are fuelling your reactions, without needing to dive straight into therapy.

Breakthrough 3: Recognise how generational trauma has shaped you. Reflect on the emotional weight you’ve been carrying and where it came from, so that you can begin breaking the cycle and stop passing it on. Includes: Bite-sized video trainings, self-guided journaling prompts, and a printable “Dad Anger Tracker” to help you spot patterns in real-time.

Phase 2: Regulating Your Reactions

Learn how to respond instead of react - even when you feel pushed to your limit.

Breakthrough 4: Understand your nervous system responses. Learn why staying calm is harder when your body is in survival mode, so that you can stop feeling like a failure when deep breathing just isn’t enough.

Breakthrough 5: Practise real-time regulation tools. Use simple, science-backed techniques without hours of meditation so you can ground yourself in the moment and interrupt the anger spiral before it takes over.

Breakthrough 6: Break the shame cycle. Explore how guilt feeds reactive parenting, and how to replace it with self-compassion and responsibility, so that you can move forward without getting stuck in regret.

Includes: Guided calming audios, a nervous system regulation toolkit, and reflection prompts to help you shift in the heat of the moment.

Phase 3: Rewriting Your Legacy

Shift from reactivity to intention - so that you can parent with confidence, connection, and clarity.

Breakthrough 7: Shift from blame to curiosity in your parenting. Rethink discipline using a trauma-informed lens, so that you can set boundaries without recreating the same patterns you grew up with.

Breakthrough 8: Build emotional safety in your home. Learn how to support your child’s emotions using simple connection strategies so that power struggles reduce and trust increases.

Breakthrough 9: Step into your new father identity. Integrate everything you’ve learned and create your personal “Dad Vision” so that you can lead your family forward with confidence, not control.

Includes: Father Vision workbook, grounding meditations, and prompts for repairing and strengthening your bond with your children.

You won’t need to carve out hours a day.

Robyn's Story

Back in 2021, everything came to a head. I grew up with a dad who had terrible anger outbursts. He’s one of the kindest men you'll ever meet - until something pushes him over the edge. He never sought help, and over time, just accepted his rage as part of who he is. That kind of unpredictable environment left its mark. My dad was more focused on how I looked than how I felt. I never felt truly heard. His constant comments about my body and what I ate led to a 10-year struggle with bulimia, and at the time, I had no idea I was carrying the unprocessed trauma of my childhood. When I became a mum, I felt like I’d found my purpose. I loved those early baby days. But as the hormones faded and the toddler years began, I noticed myself becoming impatient, snappy, and quick to blame my kids for how I felt. I wasn’t explosive like my dad - but I was reactive, frustrated, and ashamed. I didn’t like who I was becoming. Still, I didn’t connect it to my own upbringing. Not yet.


Then we moved in with my parents. With four kids in the house again, my dad slipped right back into old patterns - getting overwhelmed, snapping, and trying to control the chaos. And it was like looking in a mirror. The way he responded to my children took me straight back to my own childhood. I could see it clearly now: I had inherited more than just his temper - I had absorbed his way of coping. And I was now repeating it. That was my turning point.

I felt this fierce urgency to protect my kids- not just from him, but from the parts of me I hadn’t yet healed. I’d done years of self-development work - enough to overcome bulimia and rebuild my sense of self - but I realised I’d skipped a vital piece: understanding the roots of my own emotional responses. I had learned how to function, even succeed. But I hadn’t yet faced what was fuelling my short temper, my blame, my shame, and my emotional shutdowns. I was still carrying unprocessed anger. Still reacting to things I didn’t fully understand. That realisation is what started my deep dive into parenting through the lens of intergenerational trauma. I began to use journaling, reflection, and self-inquiry to explore where my triggers were really coming from. I created daily practices - meditations, mindset shifts, prompts and tools - to help me stay present, not just “in control.” And for the first time, I started to understand myself.

Not as a “bad parent” or someone who just needed to “try harder”…

…but as someone with a story. With wounds. And with the ability to change.   And the biggest shift? I finally felt at peace with myself. Once I started to understand where my reactions were really coming from, everything changed. I stopped seeing myself as broken and started seeing myself with compassion. I began to feel empathy - not just for my children, but for my father too. I realised he had never been given the tools either. He did the best he could with what he had, and now I had the chance to do differently. That shift didn’t just change how I parented - it changed how I showed up in every area of my life. I felt more connected, more grounded, and more aligned with who I truly am. The relationship with my children deepened in ways I never imagined possible.

FAQ

I’m a younger dad / first-time dad - will this still work for me?

Absolutely. This course is designed for dads of any age - whether you're brand new to parenting or several years in. If you’ve noticed anger getting in the way of connection with your kids, this work will help you understand where that anger comes from and how to start shifting it. Is this a parenting course? Not exactly. This isn’t about parenting strategies or discipline techniques. It’s about helping you, as a father, understand your emotional responses—especially anger—and how your past might be impacting your present. That way, you can parent from a place of calm, not reactivity.

What if I don’t have much time?

This course is designed for real-life dads—meaning short, focused trainings, powerful tools, and practices you can use in the moment. You can work through the material at your own pace, even if it’s just 15 minutes at a time.

Do I have to talk about my childhood or trauma?

Nope. While the course invites you to reflect on how your past may have shaped your emotional patterns, everything is self-paced and self-guided. You’ll never be asked to share anything or go deeper than you’re ready for. If, after the course, you feel called to explore that further, I offer 1:1 Root Cause Therapy as a next step.

Will this help if I’ve already tried therapy or read books on anger?

Yes. Many dads who’ve taken this course say it helped them connect the dots between their past, their triggers, and their parenting in a way nothing else had. The tools and reflections are practical, grounded, and designed to create real change - even if you’ve been stuck for a while.

What if I buy it and it’s not for me?

No problem. You’ve got a 14-day money-back guarantee. If you jump in and feel it’s not the right fit, just send me a quick message and I’ll refund you—no guilt, no awkwardness.

Is this course therapy?

No, this is not therapy. This is a trauma-informed, coaching-based course designed to help you explore your emotional triggers, build awareness, and begin shifting long-held patterns. It’s a great first step or companion to therapy - and Root Cause Therapy is available separately if you’d like to go deeper after the course.

How long will I have access to the course?

Forever. You get lifetime access to the course materials, so you can revisit them whenever you need a refresher—or when life throws you a new challenge.
