To all the dads with daughters… As Girl-Dads, we are in a war for our daughters' hearts & souls. That may sound a bit dramatic, but if we look a little closer, I think it's entirely accurate. The world is constantly trying to tell our daughters that they are not good enough. Our girls are being bombarded from all angles with the constant message of “You are not enough.” As Alvin Price says, “Parents need to fill a child's bucket of self-esteem so high that the rest of the world can't poke enough holes to drain it dry.” The world is poking a lot of holes right now... Are you filling her bucket of self-esteem faster than the world can empty it? And in case you thought this was supposed to be easy... The only thing harder than becoming the dad your daughters deserve is witnessing the results of your failure to do so. The consequences of us failing as girl-dad's are not fun to imagine. The good news: I want to offer you FREE access to a Masterclass I recently did called “How To Not Fail As A Girl-Dad.” This masterclass provides a framework of 10 rules that will set you on the path to building an incredible relationship with your daughter. >>>Access the Masterclass for FREE (for a limited time) here.

If you could trade 72 minutes of your time to protect your daughter's future, would it be worth it? >>>Register for the Masterclass here. I'll end with one last quote, this one from Harper Lee: "She did not stand alone, but what stood behind her, the most potent moral force in her life, was the love of her father.” P.S. When you're ready, there are 3 ways that I can help you:

You can learn from the mistakes of others or you can learn from your own failure. Let me be your guide as I share lessons & insights from my years of coaching men to become the Hero of their family's story.
Frederick Douglass said, "It's easier to build strong children than to repair broken men." To build strong children, we must first repair the broken men that we are. We must re-parent ourselves and become the father we always needed, so we can be the father our children need now. There is no shame in this, only shame in hiding from the responsibility. Part of our calling to build strong children is teaching and showing them how to rebuild and heal themselves. Even a perfect father (spoiler...
One night, my 6 year old seemed upset before bed. As I was tucking her in, I asked her what was wrong. “I’m scared," she replied. ”Of what?” I asked, expecting a monster under the bed or a bad dream from last night… ”I’m scared of YOU,” she said, “I’m scared you’re going to yell at me.” This was one of those answers that was so completely unexpected, it almost gave me whiplash. I realized that instead of protecting her from the monsters, I had become the monster… I had been frustrated having...
