The Fix Code: Stacey Nye’s Tips for Dads to Thrive

Jun 19, 2025

Hey dads, it’s a tough gig out there. Between providing for your family, managing stress, and being a rock for your wife and kids, the pressure can feel overwhelming—especially in 2025. On my latest podcast, I welcomed Stacey Nye, founder of The Fix Code, a transformative technique that helped her navigate single motherhood with grace. As a dad myself, I created this channel to support you, and Stacey’s insights are a game-changer for improving your life, marriage, and fatherhood. Let’s dive into The Fix Code, the challenges you’re facing, and seven actionable steps to level up, straight from Stacey’s wisdom.

The Fix Code Unveiled

Stacey Nye knows the chaos of parenting firsthand. As a single mom, she faced sleepless nights, panic moments, and the heartbreak of raising kids alone. “The hardest job I ever did was parenting with a broken heart,” she shares, holding it together while her emotions raged inside. That’s where The Fix Code came in. Developed by her business partner Daniel Flir over 30 years ago, this technique is a guided meditation that disconnects negative emotions—like anger, hurt, or fear—from life events.

Stacey recalls how it transformed her. After years of overwhelm and racing thoughts, a single session on anger left her calm, clear-headed, and with extra time. “It was like cleaning out the garbage,” she says, noting how it freed her brain’s “RAM” from useless emotional loops. As a master trainer, she’s seen it help clients navigate big feelings without invasive therapy, offering a dignified, elegant process. For dads, this could mean breaking free from the stress of daily grind and reconnecting with your family.

Dads Facing Today’s Pressures

Stacey sees 2025 as a turning point for dads. For 30 years, “girl power” has empowered women, but men have been left behind. “There was no boy power,” she notes, recalling how her son, now 22, grew up without community support beyond sports. Society expects dads to shoulder financial and protective roles, even if their wives out-earn them. “That instinct to provide and protect isn’t valued,” Stacey says, honoring these “beautiful skills” overlooked in a female-focused world.

As a dad, you might feel this silence—hiding meltdowns behind a car window or a tennis racket. Stacey gets it. The pendulum is shifting, and podcasts like mine aim to restore balance. But the weight of responsibility, paired with modern stresses like financial uncertainty, can build into a “parasitic program” of emotions. The Fix Code, Stacey argues, is a tool to reclaim peace amid this chaos.

Breaking the Emotional Loop

The Fix Code targets how you feel, not why. Stacey’s “magic question” asks, “What’s the biggest problem in your life right now, and how does it make you feel?” For a dad juggling work and kids, the answer might be “overwhelmed” or “stressed.” In a 15-minute session, a practitioner guides you through a meditation to disconnect that feeling from its triggers—past events, financial worries, or parenting struggles.

Take anger, Stacey’s breakthrough. Its symptoms—overwhelm, inability to think, running out of time—mirrored her chaotic life. Post-session, she was calm, with time to plan and enjoy motherhood. Hurt, another emotion, stops the loop of verbal lash-outs and guilt. Fear of job loss? The technique erases future-worry pictures, leaving confidence. “You stop thinking about it,” Stacey says, freeing mental space for fun and family. For dads, this could mean less yelling at bedtime and more meaningful moments with your kids.

Seven Actionable Tips from Stacey

Stacey’s insights offer practical steps for dads to thrive. Here are seven, blending The Fix Code with her later advice, with examples to make them real:

Identify Your Biggest Emotion: Answer Stacey’s magic question (e.g., “stressed about bills”). Book a 15-minute session at thefixcode.com to target it. Action: Set five minutes today to reflect and note your top feeling.
Try a 15-Minute Session: Experience The Fix Code’s complimentary session. Stacey’s anger relief shows its power. Action: Visit thefixcode.com, fill the intake form with your magic question answer, and schedule a session.
Break the Overwhelm Loop: Use The Fix Code to disconnect overwhelm from daily tasks. Stacey’s calm shift is proof. Action: After a hectic morning, pause for a self-guided deep breath, imagining the feeling lifting.
Learn Your Family’s Love Languages: Discover how your spouse and kids receive love (e.g., gifts, quality time) via online quizzes. Stacey stresses this. Action: Take a 10-minute love language quiz (e.g., 5lovelanguages.com) for each family member.
Lavish Love Daily: Show love in their language consistently. If your wife craves words of affirmation, text, “You’re amazing today.” Stacey’s example: steak six days a week. Action: Pick one language (e.g., hugs for touch) and apply it daily for a week.
Teach Kindness to Kids: Model Stacey’s diamond advice—“be kind”—through actions. Her son’s kindness reflects this. Action: Praise your kid for a kind act (e.g., sharing) and discuss why it matters.
Commit to Growth: Practice The Fix Code regularly via Stacey’s parenting program. Growth never ends, she says. Action: Sign up for the parenting course at thefixcode.com and do one session weekly with your family.
