An annual retreat for the Dad Tired community is scheduled for September, providing an opportunity for fathers to connect and strengthen their bonds. There will also be a parallel event in the UK, organized by local volunteers, allowing UK listeners to participate in activities similar to those in the US retreat. Participants at both retreats will engage in discussions, enjoy meals together, and experience sessions from the US live or via recordings. These gatherings foster a sense of community and support among fathers navigating parenthood.
