The Father I Never Had ft. Gaston Pong | #83

What happens when the apology you needed never came & will never come—because that person is no longer here? This Father’s Day, Maggy sits down with singer-songwriter Gaston Pong for an emotional conversation on grief, generational trauma, and finally choosing to heal. After losing his father at 21, Gaston went through a battle he had to fight himself. He recently tried hypnotherapy to confront his painful memories—including a childhood moment that changed everything. Now, he’s turning that pain into purpose & power with his new single, Only Blue— a love letter to every inner child that still aches for safety, softness, and understanding.💬 In this episode, you’ll learn:• How Gaston accessed a buried memory that changed his relationship with grief• Why anger and empathy can coexist when healing from parental trauma• What it means to “humanize” a parent after they’re gone• How therapy (and music) became his tools for healing• Why it’s never too late to reparent yourself—even if they’re no longer here Whether your father is present, absent, or passed on — this episode is for anyone navigating the complicated legacy of love, loss, and longing.🎧 Stream Only Blue by Gaston Pong, out now on all platforms.📲 Follow Gaston: www.instagram.com/gastonpong⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯🎙️ Hosted by Maggy Wang, this podcast is where real talk meets real life — messy, mundane, and everything in between.
