dads WANT TO BE SUPPORTIVE, INVOLVED PARENTS, BUT THERE IS A PROBLEM
Most dads feel alone and without any type of support for their fatherhood journey.
Many dads also feel like:
-
- they don’t have the skills
- it’s hard to connect with their kids
- the stress of work, family and money is overwhelming
- they’re failing as a partner and provider for their family
- some even wonder, will I screw my kid up?
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
Dad Central is the most trusted name in fatherhood in Canada. For 22+ years we’ve helped dads be more involved in their kid’s lives.
We have the most successful fatherhood programs and tools – validated by research.

Meet Your Mentors
Drew Soleyn - DadMentor Creator
I’ve been working hard at my own fatherhood journey for more than 11 years.
But I didn’t always know how to be the dad I wanted to be. In fact, for a while I struggled as a dad.
I wanted to be happier, feel more in control, and connected to my wife and kids. That was what mattered most to me.
But some days, it felt like things were going backwards.
On really bad days, I wondered if I was really cut out to be a dad – even though deep in my soul being a great dad was what I wanted to succeed at more than anything.
That’s when I reengaged with my mentor John C. Maxwell. In 2018 I became a Maxwell Certified leadership Coach and Trainer.
Then in 2019, I enrolled in Dr. Laura Markham’s Peaceful Parent, Happy Kids online course.
I hired a coach, began talking to other dads, and researched support for dads. Surprisingly, there wasn’t much.
As I grew my skills and supported dads through Connected Dads and Dad Central, I saw many other dads with similar struggles. This process clarified what made the single biggest difference in showing up at our best for those who matter most.
What I learned led me to create a framework that is now DadMentor and the Dad’s Roadmap.
Built off THREE C’s, I helps dads effectively:
- Connect
- Collaborate, &
- Coach
To see incredible transformation in their fatherhood. I’ve lived it myself and have helped hundreds of dads apply the principles to their life.

Dr. Gregory Fabiano has reviewed portions of the Dad’s Roadmap and it’s audio lessons and had this to say:
The [Dad’s roadmap] figure is really outstanding, I don’t think I’ve seen a course outline laid-out quite as nice as this.
I thought one thing that was really great was how concise the individual audio files were. My attention span (which is short!) was never taxed. I thought the boundaries discussion was really good.
I also liked how there was space for some engagement (e.g., stop to breathe, think about actual goals for SMART goals).
Stylistically it is really easy to listen too, and I like how it is peppered with specific examples throughout.
I really thought this was a terrific product! Greg
