I will not be a mystery to my daughter. She will know me, and I will share my stories with her—the stories of failure, shame, and accomplishment. She will know she’s not alone in that wilderness.

Don’t be a mystery to your daughter. Share your stories—failures, shame, and successes. Let her know she’s not alone in life’s challenges. Your openness will guide and comfort her through her own journey.
