Shalina (Part 3)

Shalina is back, and she's not holding back. She breaks down exactly how growing up without a father wired her to settle for the bare minimum from men, and how a narcissistic ex straight-up weaponized that daddy wound against her. Tune in to find out why fatherless daughters keep bending over backwards to prove their worth to men who don't deserve it, how your body clocked the wrong man before your brain ever caught up (hello, hair loss and acne), and why being in love with the idea of being in love is the fastest way to end up with the absolute worst person for you. The two also get into the psychology of having "TV daddies" (yes, it's a thing), why finding an emotionally intelligent man who simply understands your wound can be a significant healing experience, and Shalina puts Sarzana on the spot whether she would call a man Daddy in the bedroom. follow us: 🎙 Podcast IG: @thedaughterwithdaddyissues ✨ Shalina's IG: @counsellorshalina 📩 Email: thedaughterwithdaddyissuespodcast@gmail.com

S02 EP03: Shalina (Part 1)

Sarzana and Shalina finally meet IRL (well, on mic) after almost a year of texting, venting, and bonding over their shared daddy issues. What starts as giggles about being "happy depressed" and "being single" quickly goes deep. Meet Shalina: Counselor, criminology grad, musician, singer, producer, resume writer, and advocate for survivors of financial abuse, narcissistic abuse, and domestic violence. She shares about her father's immigration marriage to her mom, the chaos that unfolded two days after she was born, growing up in a house where dad was the ultimate forbidden topic, and the wild moment she decided to just... show up at his front door at 23 years old. Along the way, the two get real about grief disguised as anger, why "daddy issues" gets a bad rap, how not having a dad messes with your dating radar, and the very real vulnerability that comes with craving male protection you never got. It's messy, it's hilarious, it's heartbreaking, and it's everything you love about this podcast. When you spent your whole life protected from the truth, what happens when you finally decide to go looking for it?

S02 EP02 - Maria

In this episode, Maria shares her experience of mirroring her father so closely that she sometimes loses her own identity. She traces her disorganized attachment back to her parents' immigrant hustle. She admires his relentless entrepreneurial drive, even as she struggles to reconcile it with the control he's exerted over her life choices, and what her one wish is from him.

Numerology and the Divine Feminine with Coach Adrienne Harris

In this episode, I have an incredible chat with Adrienne Harris, a Numerologist, Self-love & Relationship Coach, and healer, about the wisdom found in Numerology and how understanding our energetic codes can reveal our strengths. We discuss the balance between masculine and feminine energy, the impact of not having a father’s protection, and how hyperindependence can stem from trauma. Adrienne shares her personal journey of healing, embracing her divine feminine, and reclaiming sensitivity as a superpower. We also discuss the power of sharing our stories and embracing our true, authentic selves. (Thank you, Adrienne!)
