New Short Film Shares Advice for Daughters from Dads Around the World


When my daughter graduated I wanted to share advice to help guide her journey and I asked other Dads in my network for their input. It grew into something magical as parents from around the world contributed ideas.

Legacy Journal, the parent-to-child mobile journaling app, today released “The Letter”, a short film that shares advice sourced from hundreds of dads from around the world to inspire hope and empowerment for young adult children as they venture into the world and shape their identities.

“When my daughter graduated I wanted to share advice to help guide her journey and I asked other Dads in my network for their input. It grew into something magical as parents from around the world contributed ideas. As a film, ‘The Letter’ condenses all that wisdom into a story of love and hope that I am confident will help parents to feel more connected and present with their children as they leave the nest,” said Legacy Journal’s founder, Ken Wimberly.

With its cinematic approach, “The Letter” follows a young woman reading a letter from her father as she boards a bus into her unknown future. As her father narrates, his voice and advice are artfully replaced with the voices of dads from different backgrounds and experiences.

“In a world driven by the pressures of social media “The Letter” shares an important message for young adults, wherever they might be on the planet, to always remember that each of us gets to define who we are each day.” Ken continued.

Ken, who developed the Legacy Journal mobile app and commissioned the film, has made it his mission to help parents and children build stronger bonds in the present and for the future. The Legacy Journal App (http://www.LegacyJournal.app) is available in the App Store and Google Play Store.
