Want to know how to make a powerful difference in your daughter's life?
Period Savvy Dads is a bloody awesome online course created to inform and inspire dads to confidently support their daughter(s) with menstrual cycle-related matters and the changes they face during puberty. Become familiar with the emotional and physical changes happening in each phase of the menstrual cycle, hear about menstrual self-care practices, how to create a period-positive household, how to support your daughter in empathic and practical ways, about menstrual products, menstrual discomfort, etc. and how to be a period-positive dad who can be trusted with menstrual matters.
Being a cyclic person in this linear world is challenging! Many of us were raised to go against our intrinsic nature, cover up our needs, and silence our bodies' cues to rest and slow down in order to fit into a linear culture expecting constant productivity. Many people don't know that taking great care of ourselves during our periods has immense health benefits. And by stepping back from the busy world while we menstruate, we can then rise with a powerful surge of motivation and energy available to tackle the world in the rest of the cycle.
It is time to break the menstrual taboo and help young people to integrate their cyclic nature into their daily lives.
Dads, that's where we need you!!
How you, as a dad, respond to your daughter's menstrual cycle and her needs significantly impacts how she views her body and what it means to be a woman! Empowered Menarche (the first period) leads to empowered womanhood and increases the likelihood of making better decisions and choices in life. It's all interconnected. Period positivity leads to body positivity, and body positivity cultivates good self-esteem.
Understanding the menstrual cycle gives you insight into the emotional rhythms and needs of the women (people who menstruate) in your life. It's not just about parenting, it's about becoming a more attuned partner, colleague, and human.
And here's something many dads don't expect: menstrual awareness at home often leads to more harmony in the household. When periods are understood and normalised, it reduces stress, builds empathy, and helps the whole family thrive.
Today, dads are expected to play hands-on roles with family matters, whether it's packing a camp bag, picking up a sick daughter from school, or being the steady adult she turns to with big questions. Knowing how to handle these moments with ease, empathy, and clarity makes a real difference. She needs to know that dad is in her corner when she needs him!
The Period Savvy Dads online course consists of nine chapters with recorded video content and a Crash Course version for dads who need to cut to the chase.
But the real jewels are revealed in the nine chapters with recorded video content:
This course is an opportunity to create better relationships between you and your loved ones who menstruate.
Karin Lucia Gisler is a qualified Youth Mentor/Worker, a Family Counsellor, and a Menstrual Educator with many years of experience working with young people and their parents.
One of Karin's program highlights is to educate dads about the menstrual cycle. She talked to hundreds of dads about puberty and menstruation in the past eight years. This inspired her to create this online course called Period Savvy Dads to help dads understand their daughters' (menstrual) cyclic nature and how to confidently support them with puberty changes.

Period Savvy Dads is a workshop with Karin Lucia Gisler for men only.
This coming of age and menstrual education workshop is suitable for ANY MAN interested in deepening his understanding of a menstruators cyclic nature and nature's cycles. Some focal points are on raising daughters.
The main topics of this workshop:
- Puberty and the importance of honouring Rites Of Passage (ROP)
- Menstruation
- What happens on a physical, energetic and emotional level throughout a menstrual cycles ?
- How can you support your daughter (or anyone in your life) to cultivate period positivity? How can you align with the people who menstruate throughout their cycle?
This is also amazing knowledge to be shared when raising open minded boys. - Red Tent traditions
- Wisdom of the cycles
- Deepen your understanding of nature’s cycles and how profoundly they affect us (life cycle, cycle of the earth seasons, moon cycles, menstrual cycles, cycle of the day...) How do they all relate, interact and inform us? How can they be used to increase our health and quality of life?
- What did YOUR PUBERTY teach you about being a man?
- Each Rite Of Passage brings significant transformations with it. What we experience throughout this time has a big impact on us and forms our beliefs of what is expected from us in our next chapter of life! What happened during your Rite Of Passage and what impact did that have on you?
- Understanding the big impact a dad (male caretaker) has in his daughter's life!
- Fathers shape their daughter's identity about what it means to be a woman/adult, and how to expect to be treated for being one…
- Dad - Daughter conversation and listening skills.
- Bringing more awareness and understanding to the big transformation teenagers are going through.
My intention for this workshop is to create a space for open and informative conversations about coming of age and menstrual education.
Gaining an understanding of a menstruator's cyclic nature can be a great step to creating healthier relationships with women and people who menstruate in your life.
The information shared in this workshop is a true “Eye Opener”.
Talking about Menstruation doesn't need to be scary!
