Not Getting Weight Loss Results? Your Body KNOWS You Have A Father Wound with Terri Cole
EP381 with Terri Cole
Have you ever wondered why you feel the need to prove yourself, struggle to set boundaries, or constantly put everyone else's needs before your own?
In this episode of Live Like a Girl, I'm joined by licensed psychotherapist and bestselling author Terri Cole to discuss her new book, Father Wound, and how our relationships with our fathers can shape our self-worth, relationships, and behaviors long into adulthood.
Terri explains why so many high-achieving women struggle with perfectionism, people-pleasing, and overfunctioning. I also open up about my own father wound, the childhood experiences that shaped me, and what I'm learning about healing these patterns during midlife.
IN THIS EPISODE:
What a father wound is and how to recognize the signs
Why childhood criticism can lead to perfectionism and people-pleasing
How father wounds influence relationships and boundaries
The connection between childhood experiences and nervous system patterns
Why old emotional wounds may become more apparent during menopause
How to begin healing and reclaiming your self-worth
