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.

WOW! Connecting dots that I never knew existed!

What an eye-opening topic! For those who have grown up in a home without a father or with one that was truly absent, this is a very emotional listen wrapped up in a supportive, non-judgmental way. The choice of narrator is absolutely perfect. It puts those feelings that you've been carrying around into words that have probably never been said out loud and makes you realize that you are not alone as you start to connect the dots. Honest and validating, this is a great listen.

A Deeply Healing Experience

I didn’t realize how much my father’s absence had shaped my self worth and relationships until I listened to this. It felt like the book was speaking directly to parts of me I had ignored for years. The insights were eye opening, and the exercises helped me process emotions I didn’t even know I was holding onto. If you’ve ever struggled with trust, self doubt, or feeling not enough this is an incredible resource for healing and moving forward.
