418 | Absorbing Love: How Our Fathers Shaped Our Emotional Blueprint
09 Jun 2025
Have you ever stopped to think about how you learned love — not through words, but through what you absorbed from the men who raised you? In today’s episode, Tyra explores how our early experiences with father figures — whether tender or tough — shaped our emotional language. Together, we unpack what it means to redefine love on your own terms and give yourself permission to want softness, consistency, and presence.This week’s Affirmation is: “I deserve softness — in how I speak to myself, how I love, and how I’m loved in return.”3 Biggest TakeawaysLove is often absorbed, not taught — and that impacts how we show up emotionally.You’re allowed to crave love that feels emotionally safe, expressive, and affirming.Redefining love for yourself isn’t betrayal — it’s healing.Join The Refill Room: Our Exclusive Subscriber Only Hub https://app.redcircle.com/shows/84f884fe-819e-43b6-b877-ad8ad08f986e/exclusive-content Visit my Food Blog: www.TyrasTable.com ResourcesAlexis’ ‘Feeling My Shelf’ Newsletter: https://www.feelingmyshelfnewsletter.com/ 50 side quests to do this year - https://we.tl/t-gmLxjREKx4 Listen to the For Life’s Rainy Day Playlist Wanna give therapy a try?
