Dads at We Are Girls!

This year, GENaustin is creating a series of workshops at We Are Girls designed just for fathers of daughters.

Dads, come out and enjoy this day with your daughter all while gaining valuable information from experts and your peers!

Session 1 – Dad’s Panel: A session for dads lead by three panelists who are not experts giving “right answers” but are qualified men who have thought critically about the issues of fathering daughters. The participants will all submit anonymous question to start an open dialogue. The goal is to create a safe space for dads to ask questions they might not ask if women were around and start a discussion to include everyone.

Session 2 – She Calls Me Daddy: There’s no challenge for a man quite like being the father of a girl. Boys often love to be tousled and teased by their dads. Girls love to be cherished. Boys can be “spoken to” with single words, half sentences, and grunts. Girls want their dads to talk to them in complete sentences. Boys long to live without their dad’s protection. Most girls thrive with confidence when they know their dad will be there. This workshop will help dads learn about the important issues that dads with daughters need to understand.

Session 3 – interactive workshop with Tom Meredith. Tom Meredith is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of MFI Capital, LLC.
