Rooted Conversation: Healing the Father Wound


Listen Later

In this powerful episode of Rooted Conversations, we dive into one of the most defining and often unspoken struggles men face — the father wound.

Whether your dad was absent, emotionally unavailable, overly critical, or completely missing from your story, that gap leaves a mark. But it doesn’t have to define you.

We’ll unpack how the father wound shows up in our parenting, our relationships, our faith, and our identity. Most importantly, we’ll talk about what healing looks like — not overnight, not perfectly — but intentionally and courageously.

This isn’t about blaming our fathers. It’s about breaking the cycle.

🔸 Why acknowledging the father wound is a strength, not a weakness
🔸 How it affects how we show up as dads and husbands
🔸 And how to begin the journey of healing — with grace, not guilt


If you’ve ever asked, "Am I enough without my father’s approval?" — this episode is for you.
