Let's explore how fathers shape daughters’ self-esteem, relationships, and emotional health in this deep dive into the father-daughter bond.

In this heartfelt episode, I explore the unique and deeply influential relationship between fathers and daughters. From early childhood through adulthood, a father's presence—or absence—can shape a daughter's sense of self-worth, confidence, boundaries, and even her future relationships. I'll dive into the psychological and emotional dynamics of this bond and offer insights for dads who want to strengthen their connection with their daughters. Whether you're a father, daughter, or someone curious about family dynamics, this conversation sheds light on how meaningful this relationship can be—and how to nurture it with love, intention, and presence.

Also, my miniature poodle makes a cameo.
