Our Founder, Steven, has deep roots in the Canadian prairies, where he was raised as an only child by loving parents. His diverse experiences, particularly since the birth of his daughter, have culminated in the creation of the Father In Tune community.
Steven brings a wealth of experience as both a co-parenting father and the founder of a prominent Western Canadian Fitness Trade Show. His journey as a father began when his daughter was just 1.5 years old. From the outset, he has been committed to maintaining a positive co-parenting relationship, consistently prioritizing his daughter's needs above his own. Sharing custody 50/50, Steven has made significant lifestyle adjustments to balance the responsibilities of single fatherhood with his entrepreneurial ventures.
Steven and his daughter share a unique bond through physical activities. Together, they’ve embarked on adventures such as learning to snowboard, mastering gymnastics rings, climbing the rock wall he built, and swimming—all starting when she was just 1.5 years old. These shared experiences not only brought immense joy to both but also highlighted Steven’s dedication as a father. His social media posts, showcasing these activities, resonated with many fathers in his network, often prompting them to reflect on their own relationships with their children. This feedback inspired Steven to create a platform to help other fathers strengthen their connections with their children.
In 2016, Steven launched a Fitness Trade Show that attracted hundreds of fitness and wellness businesses and thousands of attendees. Through this venture, he built a robust network of health and wellness professionals, including therapists, doctors, naturopaths, nutritionists, and personal trainers. By collaborating with these experts, Steven developed the foundation for the Father In Tune Program. Together, they crafted one-on-one consultation strategies, goal-setting techniques, and accountability measures that are now integral to the Father In Tune platform.
The Father In Tune system is designed by a team of individuals who strive to help fathers set and achieve goals and instill habits that enhance their relationships with their children. With a support network of fellow fathers and a focus on accountability, the program aims to foster stronger, more fulfilling father-child relationships.
