Are you a woman struggling with confidence and self-worth and it shows up in your relationships? Find out how your Father shapes your self-identity and how to access spiritual power regardless of your relationship with your father. If you want to become a life coach and wonder how you can help others, listen to our recent Soul Sessions podcast episode to explore how our unique Jungian coaching model is the future of coaching.

In today’s episode, hosts Debra Maldonado and Dr. Robert Maldonado discuss the intricate dynamics of the father-daughter relationship and its profound impact on a woman’s self-worth, confidence, and romantic relationships. We’ll explore how a father’s behavior—whether overly critical or excessively doting—can shape a daughter’s dependence on male approval and influence her choice of partners.

Join us as we discuss emotional availability and address the unconscious emulation of a father’s traits. We’ll also touch on how unresolved family dynamics can persist across generations, the role of Jungian psychology in understanding these patterns, and the power of shadow work in achieving personal freedom. 

How does a father’s influence shape a daughter’s self-worth and her future relationships? Through the lens of Jungian psychology, we explore:

  • The role of the “father’s gaze” and unspoken messages of approval or disapproval.
  • How emotional availability and underlying issues in fathers affect daughters’ emotional development.
  • The concept of the animus and how it influences partner selection and relationship patterns.
  • The personal impact of shadow work and self-acceptance as shared by Debra Maldonado.

Join us in this profound discussion to uncover how understanding these dynamics can lead to true personal empowerment and healthier relationships!

    This is a topic that I would have enjoyed a lot. But, I found it very difficult to process what the female was saying and questioning. It felt like information overload in comparison to the doctor. A question seemed to be a paragraph or more in length. Furthermore, the voices were in contrast.
