About this listen

Be an I.N.V.O.L.V.E.D. first-time dad and discover the secrets to a rewarding and balanced fatherhood experience!

Becoming a dad is like unlocking a new level in the game of life – exciting, challenging, and completely transformative.

Statistically speaking, more than one-third of new dads are concerned about their mental health, juggling the responsibilities of a demanding career and the uncharted territory of parenting.

Dads often describe this time as an emotional rollercoaster filled with pride, love, fear, and confusion.

What if there was a manual to navigate you through these complexities of fatherhood, offering knowledge and support designed especially for your unique adventure as a father?

Inside this life-changing dad manual, you will discover:

  • The I.N.V.O.L.V.E.D. framework, a comprehensive guide embracing every aspect of fatherhood to help new dads develop essential parenting skills
  • Ways to strengthen your bond with your baby and partner
  • The skills to juggle work, family, and personal time – make sure no aspect of your life is left behind
  • Tools to handle sleep deprivation and stress – turn these obstacles into opportunities for growth
  • How to recognize, process, and manage your emotions for a healthier, happier parenting experience
  • Practical skills that make fatherhood both fun and fulfilling – from baby-proofing your home to mastering diaper changes, be the hands-on dad your child needs!

And much more!

Every journey starts with a step, and this book is that step towards a more confident, joyful, and balanced fatherhood.

Be a dad who’s fully INVOLVED and prepared for every moment.

Become The Dad You Are Meant To Be

This book brings fresh energy to first-time fatherhood. It goes beyond just teaching baby basics—it digs into what it really means to be present, balanced, and confident as a dad. It’s packed with easy-to-follow steps to bond with your baby, tackle stress, and keep your life in sync. The tone feels like getting advice from a friend who’s been through it, not a lecture. It’s a great way to feel ready for this life-changing role.

Feeling nervous? Look here...

This book is exactly what a new dad needs to feel confident, prepared, and excited about fatherhood.

The I.N.V.O.L.V.E.D. framework is great. It makes some important things much easier to remember and easier to learn. The book doesn’t shy away from the hard parts, like sleep deprivation and stress, but instead offers tools to face these challenges with a positive mindset. I also loved how it emphasized the importance of being hands-on and present.

Whether you’re feeling nervous, excited, or even a little lost, this book is a great guide.

Great gift for new dads

A coworker of mine just became a first-time dad, and he’s been feeling totally overwhelmed. After listening to this book, I told him it would be perfect for him. It breaks things down in a way that’s easy to follow and covers everything he’s struggling with, like balancing work and family, dealing with stress, and figuring out how to bond with his baby. The I.N.V.O.L.V.E.D. framework is a big part of it, and it gives practical tips for stuff like baby-proofing and handling diaper changes. It also talks about the emotional side of being a dad, which I think a lot of guys don’t realize is so important. I feel like this book would really help him feel more confident and less stressed as a new dad.
