In this raw, real, and vulnerable season finale, Sarzana shares a piece of her own personal story — and asks the question many of us have silently carried: How could what happened in my childhood… or what I watched my mother survive… show up again in my own adult relationships?

She opens up about surviving rock bottom, navigating complex PTSD, and how her father's absence and presence both shaped her life, her relationships, and her self-worth.

This episode is a reclamation — of pain, of truth, of power.

It’s for anyone who's ever asked “why?”

It’s for the daughters carrying silent grief.

Season 2 begins this September — with Toolkit Tuesdays, Interview Thursdays, and powerful new episodes on love, trauma, healing, and the father wound.

And remember... Your story matters. Our story matters.

If you’ve ever felt like your voice didn’t matter—like you had to explain yourself over and over again just to be dismissed… this space is for you.

This episode is for anyone who was misunderstood and made to feel like they were the problem.

We dive deeper into what it means to be chronically misunderstood — especially by those who were supposed to love us best — and how those scars can quietly teach us to silence ourselves just to survive.

💬 Let’s talk: Have you ever blamed yourself for things that weren’t truly your fault? DM me @thedaughterwithdaddyissues or @thefatherwoundcoach—I’d love to hear your story.

You can also share your reflections, questions, or stories by emailing [email protected]. I read everything with love and care. 🫶

🎧 Tune in now, and remember: the world doesn’t need a quieter version of you—it needs you, fully.

Ever felt like no matter how hard you try, the words that come from your heart never quite land?

Or worse, they get twisted into something you never intended?

This episode is for anyone who’s ever been misunderstood, misjudged, or felt like their truth wasn’t seen.

• What’s the difference between misunderstanding and misjudgment—and why does it matter?
• How does being misunderstood and misjudged chip away at your self-confidence and affect our well-being?
• Why does it feel so exhausting to keep explaining yourself, even when it seems like no one is trying to understand?

If you’ve ever struggled with feeling unseen or unheard, this episode is for you. You're not wrong for wanting to be understood.

💬 Let’s talk: Have you ever reached a breaking point trying to make someone understand you?

Seven Failures, Seven Wins, and Priceless Lessons!

It's been a year since I started this podcast and on this episode I share some facepalm moments, some oh-my-gosh-yaaaay moments and a lot of lessons that I am excited to carry with me for a lifetime... Tune in! :)

In this episode, I have an incredible chat with Adrienne Harris, a Numerologist, Self-love & Relationship Coach, and healer, about the wisdom found in Numerology and how understanding our energetic codes can reveal our strengths.

We discuss the balance between masculine and feminine energy, the impact of not having a father’s protection, and how hyperindependence can stem from trauma. Adrienne shares her personal journey of healing, embracing her divine feminine, and reclaiming sensitivity as a superpower. We also discuss the power of sharing our stories and embracing our true, authentic selves. (Thank you, Adrienne!)

In this episode, I express gratitude for 2024 (the year I started this podcast!), and for everyone who has been on this journey with me. I share little summaries of the episodes I have published so far and my plans and dreams for 2025! This is a promise to turn all the hardships and pain from 2024 into a purpose. To all those who came to my podcast as a guest, my heartfelt gratitude to you. To those who shared their stories with me privately after listening to an episode or two, my heartfelt gratitude to you.

In this episode, I share the story of how I came about choosing the title for my podcast The Daughter With Daddy Issues, and my "whys" behind creating this.

Trigger Warning: Conversations around Depression; Grieving Death.

In this episode, our guest Shaheer brings courage, vulnerability and awe-inspiring resilience as he describes his relationship with his father in childhood, and the eventual passing away of his father from depression, which Shaheer heartbreakingly named, “the death of despair.”

We delve into the importance of grieving, the importance of father figures in our lives, the art of owning our stories, and forging our paths.

If I could say anything to the woman that my father had an affair with while he was married to my mother, this is what I would tell her.

Step into Episode 06, where we are honoured to share the courageous journey of Poonam. A mother to three beautiful sons, Poonam embodies invincible strength, admirable vulnerability, and unwavering resilience as she shares her powerful story with us. Tune in today as we explore father wounds, childhood traumas, and invaluable insights together! TW: childhood sexual trauma
