In this episode, Lorin explores the father wound and how it shapes the way women experience relationships with men. He opens with a coaching example of a woman who was on the verge of leaving her partner, only to realize she was viewing him through what he calls father wound glasses, projecting her father's patterns onto a man who did not actually carry them.
He outlines three common ways the father wound shows up in relationships: needing constant hits of safety, using distance to avoid vulnerability, and feeling drawn to what is familiar rather than what is safe. He also explains how each pattern affects the man on the receiving end, often leaving him trying to become the father his partner never had, a role he can never truly fill.
The episode closes with four practices for shifting out of these patterns, including separating facts from story and identifying what is hers to own versus his.
