Fatherhood as a Sacred Calling: Healing Triggers, Breaking Cycles

A Workshop by Dave Bonaiuto and Noah Goldstein, Founders of Council of Fathers

An invitation to turn moments of rupture into opportunities for growth — and to reclaim fatherhood as a path of purpose for you, your children, and generations to come.

Available for a limited time

 

Parenting is full of beauty and challenge. And yet, no matter how devoted we are, we all get triggered.

What if those moments — the very ones we often regret — could become gateways to deeper connection?

This free webinar is an invitation to fathers who want to transform cycles of reactivity into cycles of repair. Together, we’ll explore fatherhood not just as a role, but as a sacred calling: a chance to heal old wounds, to break intergenerational patterns, and to open a path of love for the future.

 

 

What You’ll Learn

In this interactive session, we'll share tangible tools and practices you can use immediately:

Before the Trigger
– Notice your stress backlog
– Identify resources to reduce the stress load

During the Trigger
– Understand the “flipped lid” (Dr. Dan Siegel’s brain model)
– Track your body’s unique trigger sensations to interrupt unwanted patterns

After the Trigger
– The art of repair: owning impact, apologizing, and rebuilding trust
– Minimize shame and guilt to move into radical responsibility

The Healing Release

– Trigger awareness across mind, body, and heart
– Pathways to release: unconditional love, self-compassion, and parts work

 Why This Matters

Our children don’t need perfect fathers. They need fathers who can model humanity, repair, and love.

When you learn to navigate your triggers, you don’t just become calmer — you become a father who shows your children how to face challenges with courage, tenderness, and grace.

This is how we break cycles. This is how we create new ones.


Who This Is For

 

Fathers who want to show up with more patience, presence, and love.

Men who sense they’ve inherited patterns from their own fathers they don’t want to pass on.

Anyone ready to explore fatherhood as a spiritual, embodied path — not just a responsibility.
