About this episode
A woman's perspective on fatherhood is oftentimes dismissed because 'they can't be fathers.' I understand the sentiment, but the value is misplaced. This 5-part series will explore how the fatherhood journey impacts women. We have to acknowledge the cycle; the woman has a father, some choose men to partner with in life, and a subset of that population may birth a baby boy at some point. That boy will grow into manhood and he may choose a woman to partner with in life. Of course, there are many off-ramps and differing scenarios that impact the story, but I think the point is clear. This is part one of a 5-part series, and my first conversation counterpart did not disappoint. Sade Benson is a loving mother, wife, podcaster, entrepreneur, and owner of a couple successful businesses. SHOP HER KOLLECTION BELOW. Accolades aside, she is a woman with a traumatic story. She is human. Humans hurt. We walked through some of the bitter parts of her past, and how therapy assisted in the overcoming process. The odds were stacked against her, but you wouldn't know it, not at face value anyway. She lost her mother tragically, became a pseudo caregiver for her younger siblings, and has spent most of her life trying to navigate the relationship with her father after finding out that he wasn't biologically responsible for her existence. This description cannot not do this conversation justice, let alone convey the incredible person that she is. Luckily, you can press play to dive deeper. I pray that you do so and receive this dialogue with an open heart and mind. I hear to help. Grab a snack and mentally prepare for this one. I’ll meet you in the comments. #childabuse #molestation #overcoming #blackmenheal #howtoheal #seektherapy Be sure to follow Sade on social media: IG: https://instagram.com/the_storybehindtheceo_podcast IG: https://instagram.com/KrownMeKollections Shop the Kollection: https://krownmekollections.com The DSP: https://thedearsonpodcast.com Support the podcast by supporting our sponsors: https://tatewhalun.com -- Discount Code: THEDSP Johns & Co Apparel: https://johnsandcompany.co Love Kisha J Studios: https://etsy.com/shop/LoveKishaJStudios Let’s connect socially: https://instagram.com/thedearsonpodcast https://twitter.com/dearsonpodcast https://facebook.com/thedearsonpodcast The Three Foundational Pillars of the DSP Community 1.
