The Father Wound: How It Shapes Men in Relationships

from Men on the Path to Love · host Bill Simpson

What if the blueprint you learned from your dad is still running your love relationships? In this episode, I talk about attachment, and the often-hidden father wound, and why so many men become fixers, over-givers, or emotionally distant without realizing they’re reenacting old pain unconsciously handed down by their fathers. I share about my own father wound and how learning about my attachment style and taking action to heal, changed everything. I offer straight talk for men ready to feel safe in relationship without losing themselves, and for partners who want to understand the patterns beneath silence, over-functioning, or hot-and-cold behavior. If the father wound has been shaping your relationships, this is your chance to bring it into the light and choose a different path.
