CHILD SAFETY SUMMIT SPEAKERS 2022

LARRY HAGNER

In his words:

Half of my childhood without a father figure in my life and the other half with toxic father figures that came and went. I made one decision as a young boy, and it was that my kids would know who their father was. I knew firsthand, the devastating effects of growing up without a positive father figure in my life.

When I became a father for the first time in 2006, it became clear that I didn’t have the skills to be the best for my sons. I was short on patience. I was quick to anger. My marriage was mediocre at best. 

I learned quickly that the desire to be a legendary father, man, and husband wasn’t enough. I had to learn the skills to actually do it. 

Our children are not born with manuals and the Journey of Fatherhood doesn’t necessarily come with a “map.” 

There are challenges, twists, and turns along the way.

AMBER ELLE

In her words: 

I am a working mama who operates my days homeschooling littles to be brave adventurers and believers in democracy while also creating and providing content in the online spaces and with our team over at Fieldcraft Survival to empower you to do the same.

I believe in personal liberties, and I believe in our abilities to rise to live above fear. I believe that the outdoors calls to our souls and invites us to return to our roots, where contentment, purpose, self reliance, and discipline prevail. 

I adore my work at Fieldcraft Survival as their Director of Family Preparedness, and the community I share with y'all over on Instagram.
