Description

Have you ever wondered what it’s really like for your husband to raise girls? Or how a dad thinks, feels, or worries about his daughters?


In today’s episode, I sit down with my husband, Shaun, for a heartfelt “ask the girl dad” conversation. It's a really special and candid conversation I hope you find insightful and entertaining. We laugh. We (I) cry. And we definitely have a lot of fun.




Here’s the power in today’s episode:

• What Shaun never expected about being a girl dad

• His biggest fears about raising daughters in today’s world

• Why dads sometimes struggle to express feelings

• His reaction to Aria starting puberty (and how he handled it)

• What dads often get wrong in this stage

• How he stays connected even as a busy dad

• Simple confidence-building things dads can do daily

• The ways we divide roles as parents in our home

• Shaun’s best advice for dads who want to show up well




Listen in if you want a real, heartfelt look inside a dad’s perspective... warm, honest, emotional, and full of those “oh wow, my partner probably feels that too” moments.
