Father’s Day isn’t easy for everyone. For many, it brings up more silence than celebration—more questions than closure.

In this deeply personal and healing episode, host Tammy Austin, LMHC, is joined by Robbin Lacey and Jujuan Young Battle, MS, RMHCI for an honest conversation about the emotional, psychological, and relational imprint fathers leave behind—whether they were present, absent, emotionally unavailable, or everything in between.

Using the iconic song "Dance with My Father" as a metaphor, we explore:

• The protective and foundational role of fathers
• The silent pain of father wounds
• How the absence of a father shapes adult identity, love, and boundaries
• The impact on both women and men
• Ways to reparent the self and reclaim emotional safety
• What healing the “father gap” can look like—through therapy, community, and inner work

Whether your father was your anchor, your ache, or your unknown—this episode holds space for your story and your healing.
