Melodee didn’t really realize how great of a relationship she had with her dad until she went away to a prestigious, private university. $25,000 a year on a formal education, the ‘name-brand’ lifestyle, but somethingwas missing . . . she came across so many young adult women that made so many drastic life-altering decisions . . . most of the ‘missing pieces’ could’ve been resolved by their fathers maximizing time with them in simple, sustainable ways . . . it blew her away. That’s when she decided to do something for fathers and daughters.
Unlike a job a man doesn’t have to prove himself to his daughter. Girls view their dads’ as gods. How ever a father interacts with his daughter and other woman she is likely to repeat the relationship patterns in her adult life. Melodee shares with us the ways a father can express love and the multiple ways his daughter is hard wired to most appreciate and receive love. It could be in the form of touch, an experience, a gift or one of the other five ways to connect with your daughter. Listen to Live Your Peace interview to figure your daughter out and then download:

What a wonderful sentiment. While I’m not a father myself, I applaud anyone with the insight to use their personal experience in such a critical arena– the father/daughter relationship– to help others improve their own bonds. Absolutely fantastic. And you’re helping make it happen, Ruth! Way to go!
