The Rooted Week - For the dad who’s done drifting
The Rooted Week
Build Your Rooted Family in 7 Days
You’ve read the books. Listened to the podcasts. Tried to “be more present” while your toddler screamed in your face and Slack lit up in your pocket.
Let’s be real: You don’t need another tip.
You need a rhythm that holds when life gets loud.
The Rooted Week is a 7-day reset for dads who are tired of pretending everything’s fine.
It’s not a parenting course.
It’s not a motivational slap on the ass.
It’s a real rhythm for real life. One quality per day. One story, one shift, one practice. That’s it.
This thing was built in the fire.
While I was figuring out how to lead my family without losing myself.
How to be strong without shutting down.
How to stop waiting for life to feel easier.
If you’re still reading, maybe you’ve felt it too.
That low-grade guilt.
The pressure to get it right.
The exhaustion of doing everything but never feeling like it’s enough.
This week won’t fix everything.
But it will help you come back to what matters.
And stay there more often.
What you’ll get
- A 7-day rhythm to help you lead with clarity, not chaos
- One core quality per day: Initiative, Rooted Presence, Calm Strength, Repair, Intimacy, Wonder, and Community
- Honest stories from my life, not abstract theory
- Grounded practices that work even when your day is full and messy
Bonus tools included
These aren't side dishes. They’re here to help you put the week into practice, especially when life gets loud.

What others say
“Working with Mihai was super easy. He’s very calm, easygoing. He showed me how I can manage my anxiety, how I can fight my mind when it goes to the dark side. I loved the way he never left me alone. He checked in with me every day and showed me how to journal, manage my day, and come back to myself. It was a very nice experience.”

About me
After more than ten years in the military, I stepped into fatherhood and realized none of my training prepared me for this.
I had traveled the world, tried different jobs, chased freedom, but still felt unrooted.
What followed wasn’t a transformation. It was a slow return. To rhythm. To presence. To family.
The Rooted Week came out of that return.
I built it for myself first. Then I started sharing it with other fathers who were tired of drifting, but didn’t want to disappear into pressure or performance.
This isn’t advice. It’s rhythm. It’s what helps me show up for the life I’ve chosen—especially on the hard days.
If that’s what you’re looking for, I think this will help.
Reset your rhythm, reconnect with what matters, and lead your family with clarity and presence. One grounded week. Real tools. Built for real life.
