In this episode, licensed therapist John Kim unpacks the father wound - how it silently shapes our self-worth, relationships, and ideas of masculinity. Through raw personal stories and practical, street-level insights, he explores what it means to grow up with a “ghost father” and how both men and women can begin to heal.
You’ll learn:
- Why the father wound exists even if your dad was “there”
- How it shows up differently for men and women
- Why emotional absence can leave deeper scars than physical absence
- How it becomes a blueprint for love, power, and identity
- Practical ways to reparent yourself and break the cycle
