How to create byobu session inside byobu with a bashcommand

So I have a setup with guake, byobu and tmux as backend. I want to have different folders already open in my console for work projects and these projects in individual sessions I get the following message when I try to 

tmux new -s contract-service

or 

byobu -S my-other-session

sessions should be nested with care, unset $TMUX to force

of course, because it already has the session open and I am typing it in it. So my question is, how do I write a bash script the byobu shortcut Ctrl+Shift+F2 because this is exactly what I want.

This works for me now: 

xdotool key --clearmodifiers ctrl+shift+F2

tmux rename-session $SESSION
