Fireside Fathers

“Fanning the Flames of Legendary Dads”

I invite you to join an intimate gathering of legendary dads, June 4th through June 8th, 2025.

Fireside Fathers is an annual retreat designed as a place to heal, grow, imagine, build, and forge.

The outcome of Fireside Fathers is greater clarity and confidence in our roles as dads, men, and partners. Through fireside discussions, wilderness skills development, a primal skills challenge, meditation and journaling, and hearty meals, you will be guided through a discovery and vision building process that will result in you taking on the coming years with relentless conviction and a brotherhood to support you.

About your Host

Dave Momper

Dave is a new father (with a son approaching 2 years old), husband to MacKenzie, and a leadership facilitator to executives, entrepreneurs, and sales pros. To explore what Dave considers the ultimate leadership role, he launched the podcast Whoa Dad! Go Dad! in 2024. The podcast then fueled the desire to have real-life, deeply meaningful, in-person, conversations with fellow fathers - in the wild - leading us to the Fireside Fathers retreat series launch.
