About
Built by a dad in the thick of it

The Dad's Life is being shaped in real time by an actual dad, with real kids and a real to-do list – not a marketing team.

The tools and content are designed to be honest, practical and kind to your energy levels.

How The Dad's Life works

The site is not about being a perfect parent. It is about giving you a simple system so that family life, money and work feel a bit less chaotic and a bit more intentional.

1. Capture what matters
Drop in your real life – the kids’ routines, bills, projects, court dates, goals and ideas. Everything sits in one place instead of scattered across apps and notes.
2. Turn it into small actions
Use quests, checklists and projects to slice things into steps you can do in the time and energy you actually have.
3. Learn and adjust as you go
When something is hard – co-parenting, money stress, feeling burnt out – the Academy and Playbook give you short, focused guidance you can apply the same day.
