12 Sep 2025
Send us a textIn this powerful episode of 15 Minutes with Dad, host Lirec Williams explores how attachment theory explains the hidden scripts that shape men in adulthood. From homes shaped by addiction, untreated mental health, or generational trauma in the 1950s–80s, many fathers inherited patterns of emotional distance, physical punishment, and survival-based parenting.Learn how anxious, avoidant, and dismissive-avoidant attachment styles play out in marriages, co-parenting, and fatherhood challenges, and how these cycles quietly reinforce the father wound. Through research-based growth insights and personal development for dads, you’ll discover how to identify your style, recognize unhealthy patterns, and begin writing a new story of emotional presence, parenting resilience, and healthy masculinity for your children and relationships.
