ABOUT THIS EPISODE
The show is called Daddy Tissues, so we might as well talk about the obvious: daddy issues. And mommy issues too — because let's be fair, everyone contributed, and I always give credit where it's earned.
I used to think "daddy issues" was just something people said about the girl with the glow-in-the-dark tongue ring who kept getting demerits from Sister Helen for her uniform skirt. Now that I'm 40, divorced, and hosting a podcast from my bedroom, I can tell you from deep in my soul: daddy issues are not a punchline. They are the root system. They are the wiring. They are the reason.
This episode is about what your childhood actually taught you about love — before you ever met the man you're crying over now. Why the smartest, most self-aware women keep choosing the same wound wearing a different face. And why being aware of the pattern is not the same thing as being free of it.
New episodes every Monday.
Grab your daddy tissues. Till next time, my queens. 🖤
