Men on the Path to Love

The Father Factor: How The Relationship With Your Dad Shapes The Way You Love


Listen Later

Ever wonder why you keep falling into the same relationship patterns? The answer could be in your relationship with your father.

The emotional legacy left by our fathers shapes how we love as adults in ways most men never realize. Whether your father was physically absent, emotionally unavailable, overly critical, or placed on a pedestal, these experiences impact how you love in your adult relationship in how you handle conflict, express your emotions, and recognize your own sense of worth when it comes to love.

In this episode, I share my journey with an emotionally distant father.  I also tell the story of Nick, whose father was beloved by the community yet was rarely present at home – a pattern Nick unconsciously recreated with a partner that wasn't emotionally available until therapy helped him see and break the cycle. Understanding these patterns is the first step toward transformation. The good news is, healing is possible. Check out The Father Factor: How The Relationship With Your Father Shapes The Way You Love, episode.
