REWIND: Fatherless Daughters

Hey Sis!! In order for us to have the best relationships possible, sometimes we need to go all the way to childhood.  We need to evaluate our triggers and be honest about why we do the things that we do.

Today’s podcast guest is Bernadette Jackson.  Bernadette Jackson is a woman of faith, a mom, a fatherless daughter and a transparent truth teller. As a Relationship Engagement Strategist and your favorite Fear Investigator, she creates safe spaces for fatherless daughters to learn, grow and heal. Her safe spaces include the Healing Elevates Relationships Podcast where she is redefining how the world views women with daddy issues; H.E.R Coalition, her private FB community and H.E.R Way Relationship Intensive, her private coaching program. In that program, Bernadette teaches clients everything she wished she knew about attracting and maintaining amazing relationships as a fatherless daughter. This program is near and dear to Bernadette's heart as she openly shares how her own fear of abandonment cycle kept her in undesirable relationships for more than a decade.

One thing that stuck out – What Fatherlessness actually is:

A Fatherlessness is a spectrum. One end is a father who has never been there and the other end is a father who has been there and has been intentional.  In between are fathers who were inconsistent, fathers who present sometimes/ part-time, or fathers who were not emotionally present.

 

Characteristics Fatherless Daughters Tend to Display:

1. Constantly seeking validation
2. Desire to control everything around you
3. Issues with intimacy
4. Problems being vulnerable
5. Fear of abandonment or rejection
6. Fierce loyalty to family/ friends
7. Overextend yourself in your relationships with others
8. Caretaker to your friends
9. Mothering your significant other

Final Comments from Bernadette:

• Your father loss happened to you but was not because of you.
• You deserve amazing relationships. Nothing you’ve experienced and no person who could not see that disqualifies you from what you truly deserve. So stand in that truth and know that regardless of what you’ve been through that there is more for you and it comes on the other side of you getting to know who you are deeply.
