Every single father-daughter story is a gem, no matter how uplifting or painful it may feel. These precious stories influence girls’ and women’s leadership presence, yet we rarely talk about them publicly. I’ve always yearned for the wisdom of father-daughter stories to give me guidance at crossroads in my life. I also treasure the healing power of these stories. How many kinds of relationships do we know of where men can safely show their soft sides, and women can openly feel proud of their own strength? Not many. But a healthy father-daughter relationship is certainly one. The goal of the Fathers for Daughters Initiative is to restore the long-lost balance of masculine and feminine leadership within us, regardless of gender. Enjoy these stories told by real fathers and real daughters. Tunde Horvath, Founder
