With Father's Day just around the corner, this conversation is especially appropriate, as Allison and Cyndi explore the intricate and often underappreciated aspects of fatherhood. They not only share personal anecdotes but talk through broader societal perspectives on the evolving role of fathers.

Some of the things this mother-daughter duo discuss are:

• Celebration and challenges of Fatherhood: the varied experiences of fathers, from personal involvement to societal expectations.

• Gifts and Acknowledgments: appropriate ways to honor fathers, including personal stories about their Father's Day traditions and gift-giving.

• Father figures and influences: the impact of father figures in each woman’s personal development and their crucial role in shaping relationships and life choices.

This episode is not just a reflection on fatherhood but a celebration of the fathers who actively shape the lives of their children, proving that the role of a father is diverse and continues to be deeply impactful on their children’s lives.

"I do think that male energy is so beneficial around children... It's necessary. Having a father figure in a kid's life as they grow up is invaluable." – Cyndi
