Hey, I'm Sean.

When I was a San Diego teenager growing up in the 90's, my #1 life dream was to one day be a dad. A father. A husband. To have a great, healthy family. To create a loving home. That’s all I’ve ever wanted. 

But no one, unfortunately, taught me the tools that I needed to know to make this happen. And that put me at a tough disadvantage when I became a dad in 2005. I had very few tools. I was a mess. I was NOT the man you see portrayed in my social media videos today.

Angry outbursts one day and I avoided problems the next. Made excuses. Blamed.

I failed at staying calm and connected calm in stressful moments. 

Emotional, harsh discipline that didn't work, and didn't get my kids to behave. Then guilt. Then confusion.

Painful co-parenting arguments with my wife, Danielle.

It was like a dark fog of pain and uncertainty I couldn't see out of; family life was hard. 

(If you’re feeling this, you are not alone.) With no one to turn to, I drowned in a sea of confusion.

But I knew. I knew there was a better way to parent. An easier way. A way to create a loving, peaceful home.

I just had to find it.

And so I did.

I read. I studied parent psychology. Healthy family dynamics. Read stats. Looked at science-based studies. I listened. I dove into "Positive Parenting" practices. I talked to emotional, hurting kids. Screen-addicted tweens. Defiant teenagers. I talked to happy, healthy kids. Successful teens. I studied thriving parents and struggling ones. I asked hard questions. Like a fly on the wall, I was invited into people’s homes and closely observed parent's and kid’s interactions. In the messiness of everyday life. The craziness.

I learned. A lot.

I discovered parenting tools. How some tools were better than others. Some parents were better than others. I discovered the secrets to how parents can be close and connected with their kids. I developed a large parenting toolbox. I learned that all parents need good tools, and how good tools help us connect, solve painful problems, create loving homes and raise amazing kids.

For years, I soaked up every parenting tool I could get my hands on. I invented a few of my own. Tools that we need in our modern, plugged-in world. I was obsessed.  And when I put my new tools into practice with my own family, with my kids, our home transformed into something beautiful and harmonious.

At first, it was weird how amazing (and easy) parenting became for me. It was fun. Beautiful. We were connected. I just had to say certain words and I could create quickly connect, solve problems and build instant cooperation. 

Time passed. I knew there were other parents out there who were exactly like I used to be; struggling and desperately needing help in their lives. I wanted to help. 

I dreamed. I dreamed that one day I could help parents. Help families. It was a big dream. I was a man in a female-dominated space. An alpha male. Who likes football and BBQ. Who isn’t always gentle or sweet. Who doesn’t have a fancy PHD. Who says the word “friggin’ a lot. Will anyone care what I have to say?

Fast forward to today...the dream has come true. 

Today, I’ve helped save thousands of families connect and create love and harmony. Helped stop that spiral. Bad behavioral patterns...and helped them break those cycles and create amazing families.

My social media videos are enjoyed by  many, many millions.

I’ve been invited to countless podcasts and stages. My podcast is now ranked in the Top 10 charts. My coaching has helped thousands.

And I couldn’t have done it without you... so thank you.

But...I understand there are still many struggling parents out there who can relate to my painful story (maybe you).

That’s why I put everything I learned from 20+ years of coaching into creating life-changing experiences...

...to finally eliminate the pain within their family.

I'd love to speak with you.

Over the last 25+ years, Sean has led countless coaching sessions with parents and young people on Zoom, in living rooms, at Starbucks, and while walking in the park...

...and about once a month, a family jokes with him and asks if can move in with them!

Back in 2004, Sean saw the TV show SuperNanny ...and was inspired! He said to his wife Danielle, "I would love to do that...help parents and teens...I should become the Teen SuperNanny!" Years later, that crazy idea became a reality.

Sean has mentored young people who have become Hollywood TV and film stars, YouTube stars, CEOs, TV and news personalities, reality television stars, business entrepreneurs, and college athletes.

More importantly, Sean has helped thousands of young men and women become mature, kind, responsible, successful adults; many of whom have now become happy, healthy parents themselves. 

Sean Donohue graduated from  UC San Diego and has a Masters degree from Golden Gate.

Sean enjoys sports, fishing, backpacking, concerts and connecting with his many followers on social media.
