Father Wound

Father Wound Synopsis

'A revolutionary guide to identifying, understanding, and healing our childhood wounds with honesty, compassion, and self-awareness.' - Yung Pueblo, bestselling author of InwardThe hidden wound affecting millions of women.A father wound is a worthiness wound. Millions of women have one and don't know it has a name. It's the inner voice telling you that you need to be different, better, or more accomplished to be worthy of love and consideration.

We carry it into job interviews, first dates, and what we see in the mirror each and every day.After nearly three decades in clinical practice, Terri Cole has seen how profoundly father-daughter relationships shape a woman's sense of self. When a father or father figure is absent, abusive, immature, or emotionally unavailable, the injury can show up as difficulty trusting others, chronic self-abandonment, and relational patterns we repeat without knowing why.

And even daughters of loving fathers can carry a father wound, formed by family dynamics and the subtle or overt conditioning of a patriarchal society.Healing is an inside job. It doesn't require your father's participation, presence, or approval, only your own.In Father Wound, you'll learn how to:Mourn the father relationship you deservedReparent yourself and break generational cyclesReclaim your joy, pleasure and sensualityBecome empowered and self-determined in your career, your life and all your relationshipsThrough case studies, self-assessments, and nervous-system practices, you'll identify, honour and integrate your father wound so you can reclaim your worth, boundaries and power.'When you heal your father wound, every relationship in your life positively shifts: romantic, platonic, professional, and most importantly, the relationship you have with yourself, where real freedom begins.''This is the book so many of us didn't know we needed: a compassionate, grounding read that meets you exactly where you are' - Nedra Glover Tawwab, licensed therapist and bestselling author of Set Boundaries, Find Peace.
