Finally Felt Seen and Understood

Listening to this brought up a lot of emotions I didn’t expect but in a good way. It felt like someone finally put words to things I’ve felt for years but couldn’t explain. The voice was warm and steady which made it easier to sit with the harder parts. I paused a few times to reflect or just breathe through certain chapters. I didn’t feel rushed or judged which made all the difference. After finishing it I felt lighter like I had a better understanding of myself and where some patterns really came from.

As a Dad, This Hit Me Hard!

Listening to this book as a father opened my eyes to things I hadn’t fully considered. It made me think about the kind of emotional impact my presence—or absence—can have on my daughter’s life. The stories, research, and real talk made it clear: being physically there isn’t enough. I need to be emotionally present too. This book wasn’t just for daughters—it was a wake-up call for fathers. Every dad needs to hear this. Your presence matters more than you know.
