About this episode
In this episode I dive into the nuances behind the dynamics between dads and daughters, especially when they are little. Father wounds or what many call ‘Daddy Issues’ impact a girl’s life in such profound ways and I address some of those here. I focus on dad’s embrace both physical and spiritual with their daughters and how when that is missing, there is a big emptiness that she will then go on spending her life trying to fill. I pepper in examples from pop culture, media, and films from Lily Phillips to My Best Friend’s Wedding and more.Expect to learn about feminine power and grace, the link between dad wounds and boss babes, what female leadership actually looks like, and much more.Timestamps:00:00 - 00:32 Episode Trailer and Intro00:32 - 01:14 Episode Overview01:14 - 03:02 Tim Kennedy and his little girl03:02 - 04:23 Dads and their own dad issues?04:23 - 06:58 Getting to the bottom of Lily Phillips 06:58 - 07:57 How damaging to a girl is a distant father?07:57 - 09:01 Is Lily Philips deeply wounded?09:01 - 11:20 What a healthy relationship between dad and daughter looks like11:20 - 13:18 Women and Self-esteem13:18 - 17:37 My best Friend's Wedding - the film17:37 - 21:12 Feminine grace and vulnerability21:12 - 22:57 This makes a woman sexy22:57 - 26:00 A peek into Vladimir and Vera Nabokov’s love story26:00 - 27:23 A woman is a man's true counterpart27:23 - 28:32 Final thoughts and key takeaways
