Meet Ryan
Certified Integral Coach
I created Daring to Dad out of my own journey as a father. I know firsthand how demanding, messy, and meaningful this role can be. I’ve faced seasons of doubt, heartbreak, and growth, all while trying to show up for my kids in the best way I can.
Along the way, I realized most dads are carrying the same weight—wanting to provide and protect, but also struggling to stay connected, present, and confident. No one handed us a manual, and too often we’re left to figure it out alone.
That’s why I do this work. In addition to being a dad, I’m a men’s coach and a graduate student in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I combine lived experience with professional training to help dads build the skills and support they need to thrive.
My hope is that every dad I work with discovers that fatherhood isn’t just about getting through—it’s about becoming the man your kids will look back on and know: he showed up.
