My Dad Is My Hero | A Conversation w/ Gia Jordan | The DSP Ep 26

My dad is my hero. Those four words bring so much joy to my heart, not only as a father, but as a man that admires strong father-daughter relationships. This is the bond that sets the tone for how women value the relationship with a man, and also teaches men way more about themselves than they may expect. In part two of this series focusing on the woman's perspective of fatherhood, Gia Jordan graciously relives many fond moments of her fatherhood journey.Gia's father was her superhero as she grew up, and she still sees him through that lens today. She recalls the challenges he faced growing up in Panama as a child with learning disabilities that the educational community of that time wasn't prepared to support or manage. They simply called him dumb. Throughout his life he was told no and discouraged from achieving anything great. Gia also struggled with a learning challenge as a child, and luckily, she had the benefit of her father's triumph as a reference on how to overcome it. He condensed the years of his painful experiences into sound guidance, encouragement, and motivation, which propelled Gia to become successful in school and life.These are the stories that we need to see and hear about regularly. There is no substitute for a great father-daughter relationship. I truly hope this conversation empowers men to be or stay present in their daughters' lives, and encourages women to treasure and protect these relationships where possible. #daddysgirl #herodad #PanamaBe sure to follow Gia on social media and YouTube: IG: https://instagram.com/kaizenmindpodcastYT: https://youtube.com/channel/UC_pmyiYX7f0m7Dbt96hkbYwThe DSP: https://thedearsonpodcast.comSupport the podcast by supporting our sponsors: https://tatewhalun.com -- Discount Code: THEDSPJohns & Co Apparel: https://johnsandcompany.co Love Kisha J Studios: https://etsy.com/shop/LoveKishaJStudios Let’s connect socially: https://instagram.com/thedearsonpodcast https://twitter.com/dearsonpodcast https://facebook.com/thedearsonpodcastThe Three Foundational Pillars of the DSP Community1.
