The show is called Daddy Tissues, so we might as well talk about the obvious: daddy issues. And mommy issues too — because let's be fair, everyone contributed, and I always give credit where it's earned.

I used to think "daddy issues" was just something people said about the girl with the glow-in-the-dark tongue ring who kept getting demerits from Sister Helen for her uniform skirt. Now that I'm 40, divorced, and hosting a podcast from my bedroom, I can tell you from deep in my soul: daddy issues are not a punchline. They are the root system. They are the wiring. They are the reason.

This episode is about what your childhood actually taught you about love — before you ever met the man you're crying over now. Why the smartest, most self-aware women keep choosing the same wound wearing a different face. And why being aware of the pattern is not the same thing as being free of it.

After we lovingly blamed our fathers, their fathers, and our entire bloodline, let's talk about what happens when you finally decide you're done. Done with the men who are weather events — the ones who walk into your life and suddenly you need three emergency contacts and someone to hold your earrings.

So you put the fuckboy crack pipe down. You date the normal, everyday Joe. Your friends approve. You think: look at me healing and shit.

And then the water starts heating up. One degree at a time.

This episode is about the chaos that isn't loud. The nice guy. The covert narcissist. Being made to feel crazy so slowly you never notice the moment it started. And the real questions that tell you whether you're actually safe — or just less obviously in danger than last time.

⚠️ Contains strong language and discussion of gaslighting and emotional abuse.
