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 wellListen 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.EMPOWERED RESOURCESFree Empowered Puberty Checklist for Girl Moms- Grab it ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered Cycle Charting for Her- Check It Out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Period Kit- Check out RedDrop ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LITerally Magazine!⁠⁠⁠Subscribe HERE for 10% off!⁠⁠⁠*Don't forget to apply the code ADRIANE10Learn more about LITerally Magazine ⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠!RELATED EPISODES⁠Ep. 22- Moody or Misunderstood?
