Divorced Dads Unite

Come learn how parents of divorce can secure their future! Yes Mom's too!

FEEDBACK REQUESTED

Hello All! As a divorced dad myself, I'm always seeking ways to improve life for my children and for me. So when I see an opportunity to learn and grow I grab it with both hands. We, as a group, have been invited to share some refreshments, (wine and cheese kind of stuff) as we gather to learn how we might improve our financial security. This will be a casual assembly for anyone interested in developing a plan to make the best of their current circumstances regardless of where they find themselves within the divorce transition.

While we're there I will also be introducing the group to Personal Development Coaching. You will learn how Core Energy™ Coaching and Energy Leadership™ can give you a new lease on life after divorce. The presentation will include practical skills you can easily apply to deal with the stresses of divorce, parenting, finances, career, etc.

Lindsay Remington, a Financial Adviser at Wells Fargo has been kind enough to sponsor this meetup. She will be presenting some options for securing your financial future after divorce.

Anmarie Wheeldon, a Professional Career Coach will join us. She has excellent insight on how to improve your earning potential. This is especially beneficial to anyone seeking employment or to change their career.

Parents of divorce (POD's) will find a great deal of information and insight. I have tentatively scheduled this meetup for the dates and times above. It would be greatly appreciated if you can RSVP early if you're serious about taking advantage of this opportunity.

We have plenty of room to grow so if you have a friend of divorce feel free to pass on this opportunity to them. The more the merrier. Plus we get to mingle with new faces!

No cost, no obligation. And there's some fun places in the area to carry on with the mingling after the meetup! I hope to see everyone there.

This Meetup was a homerun. I learned how that feeling of security is related to all of my decisions to provide happiness, a sense of peace, and balance in my life. Just in speaking with the others I'm reminded of how precious that feeling of security is. I'm amazed by the courage all of my fellow divorced leaders display every day to improve their quality of life. I expected the Meetup to last about an hour, but it lasted 3 hrs and we could have gone on. This was truly an amazing show of support by everyone involved. Thank you all.

WoW What an energetic and powerful meeting. I especially liked the fact that women and just as welcome as the men, that gives us guys a chance to get input and perspective from the other side. This was an extraordinary moment for me... My Emotions are all over the map, and the group was incredibly helpful in give me guidance, as well as many tools and information on how best to move forward. The members were extremely frank and shared their personal stories, experiences, feelings and emotions. They gave me frank look at my game plan, and validated several points and issues that I needed an outside look at. I especially want to thank George, Lindsay , and Anmarie for their support and willingness to share in such a personal emotionally charged situation (My wife if close to 23 years drooped the bomb on me only days ago) So I am still going through a basket full of emotions and they were invaluable in helping me deal with the process and experience I am going through.

Divorce is rarely easy or pleasant but it can be a time of positive transition. You have a choice whether to be at the cause of your life or at the effect of it. You can be a victim of your circumstances or a leader through them.

Does the way you view the world and the decisions you make determine who you are? Or, does who you are determine your experiences?

My name is George Haskoor and I am both the remnant of a divorce as a child and a recently divorced dad. I've experienced divorce from both sides. Through it all I've been blessed to discover how to transition through my divorce, maintain an amazing relationship with my children and begin to be the person I've always wanted to be all while maintaining my sanity, my values and my purpose of being a great father.

I am a Certified Life and Business Development Coach, a martial arts instructor, a devoted father and a peaceful warrior. I partner with business owners, career professionals and divorced parents to directly impact and improve their level of success and their quality of life with my unique and effective coaching process called Energy Leadership™. I started this group so that I may share what I've learned with those seeking to improve their quality of life and overcome the obstacles that can make us feel stuck as a result of divorce.

One of my goals is to get people moving by 'getting people moving.' I do this in fun and innovative ways including group coaching, outdoor adventures such as hiking, running, biking, martial arts instruction, yoga and movie nights. My hope is that I will attract parents like myself that can use the support of others who share similar values and to find positive outlets to relieve the stress that make difficult times seem impossible.

I do not offer legal advice but all topics are welcome and open for discussion. My goal is to help you help yourself through your transition. I do offer comprehensive life and business coaching services if you so choose to enhance your personal development. But my main focus is to have fun meeting new people and enjoying physical activities, all while sharing the knowledge of achieving inner peace so that we can do what's best for our children and ourselves.
