About this listen

In this episode of Let’s Get Vulnerable, we continue our 3-part series The Parent Wound & Your Attachment Style by exploring how the father wound shapes the way you experience love, intimacy, and self-worth. I’m breaking down how emotional absence, inconsistency, criticism, or unpredictability from a father figure wires your nervous system and becomes the blueprint for the partners you choose, the dynamics you repeat, and what feels “normal” in love. If you’ve ever found yourself overgiving, avoiding closeness, or feeling unsafe with emotionally available partners, this episode will help you understand why and what actually heals it.

Inside the episode:

  1. What the father wound is and why it shapes love so deeply, including how approval, protection, and being chosen become core attachment needs
  2. How the father wound shows up in anxious, avoidant, and disorganized attachment, influencing who you’re attracted to and why certain relationships feel familiar
  3. What it takes to heal the father wound, from grieving what you didn’t receive to updating your relationship model and learning to choose emotionally available partners

This work is about understanding your patterns without shame, reconnecting to your sense of worth, and rewiring what love feels like in your body. You are not broken—your nervous system learned what it needed to survive, and it can learn something new.
