KEY TAKEAWAYS
Candice Crear, Founder and CEO (and Vice President of the Board) of From Fatherless to Fearless, hosted the event. She opened and closed the day with reflections on the theme “Nourishing the Journey,” guiding moms and daughters toward mutual healing and empowering them to nurture strong, compassionate bon.
At the 2025 Better Together Mother + Daughter Conference, one standout workshop offered a creative and empowering experience for attendees. Daughters were guided By Ms. Adoria Maxberry through a self-reflection activity where they drew self-portraits, allowing them to express their identities visually. Following this, they crafted personal affirmations, reinforcing their strength and resilience. This exercise highlighted the importance of self-expression and positive self-talk, serving as a reminder that acknowledging one's worth can be a powerful tool in navigating life's challenges. Participants left the session with a renewed sense of confidence and a deeper understanding of each other's experiences.
Mothers and Daughters were immersed in a day of healing, connection, and empowerment. One of the standout sessions featured Mercedes Brown, who spoke candidly to mothers about the importance of healing themselves to break generational curses. In the daughter session, Philitia Charlton posed a thought-provoking question: "What lies have been told to you that are affecting how you are living?" This led to deep reflections on the narratives passed down through generations and how they shape current behaviors and beliefs.
In another impactful moment, two mothers took the stage to share insights on what daughters might be hesitant to express to their mothers. Their openness fostered an atmosphere of trust and understanding, encouraging participants to engage in more honest and empathetic conversations. Jaahniah Crawford, a daughter attendee shared her heartfelt reflection: “It was an impactful experience and I’m glad I came!”
The conference also prioritized nourishment, providing both breakfast and lunch to ensure attendees were well-fed and energized throughout the day.
Overall, the event was a testament to the power of shared experiences and the importance of creating spaces where mothers and daughters can heal, learn, and grow together.
