Episode 98

Dating with Daddy Issues feat. Matchmaker Melissa Rogers

Today’s topic is Dating with Daddy Issues in honor of Father’s Day. Here’s to all of the amazing dad’s out there who are showing up for their children with interest, affection, tenderness and consistency. You are changing worlds and preventing attachment issues. We applaud you! Today’s episode focuses on the wounds we carry with us when we have unmet needs from our own fathers’ rejection, disinterest, criticism, infidelity, disappearance… All of these unmet needs affect our adult relationships and influence who we are attracted to. The first part of this episode, Doug and Dr. Talia talk about the attachment issues that can arise from our father wounds. Then we invite Melissa Rogers, expert matchmaker from our most listened to episode from last June 2023, Let’s F#*%ing Date, into our conversation. She shares her experience as expert and dater. What are daddy issues? How do we know if we have them? How do our unresolved issues affect us in dating? What are the different wounding father archetypes and how do they affect our attachment style?
