Empowering Future Female Leaders with Dena Patton

What if the key to raising capable, confident adults isn't found in protecting them, but in purposefully equipping them with real-world skills years before they leave your home?

Dena Patton, award-winning leadership coach, co-founder of the Girls Rule Foundation, and author of the book The Greatness Game, reveals how intentional parenting transforms uncertain teenagers into empowered young adults.

• Parenting with purpose means breaking negative childhood cycles while intentionally creating positive experiences
• Raising children means raising future adults, requiring deliberate skill-building starting at age 12-13
• Enabling vs. empowering—simple tasks like making appointments build crucial self-advocacy skills
• Creating emotional connections with teenagers through lighthearted moments and memorable experiences
• Leadership is an action, not a title—girls need these skills in their teens, not just adulthood
