In this heartfelt episode, De’Iona Monay takes listeners on an intimate journey through her experience of growing up without a father figure. She opens up about the deep-rooted effects of an absent father and how this absence shaped her understanding of love, self-worth, and relationships. From navigating the challenges of being the third oldest of 13 children with a father who remained distant, to the heartbreak of being abandoned after a contentious argument, De’Iona explores how these formative experiences impacted her confidence and trust in men.
 
De’Iona reflects on how the quest for paternal love influenced her first relationships, including the harsh reality of seeking affection and validation from older men who took advantage of her youth and innocence. She candidly discusses the moments of realization, pain, and resilience that propelled her forward and led her to build a relationship with God, the ultimate father figure who provided the love, protection, and guidance she longed for.
